Developed in consultation with more than 3000 practitioners across the country, Core Competencies for Public Health in Canada: Release 1.0 organizes 36 competency statements into the following seven categories:
- Public health sciences
- Assessment and analysis
- Policy and program planning, implementation and evaluation
- Partnerships, collaboration, advocacy
- Diversity
- Communication
- Leadership
These core competencies, with their companion glossary, transcend the boundaries of specific disciplines and provide a baseline for all public health professionals.
