| The core mission of the Columbia University Center for Public Health Preparedness is to serve as a resource for public health preparedness. This resource exists for not only the public health workforce, but for public health partnering with the general community as well. Immediately after the World Trade Center and anthrax events in NYC, the community had a pressing need for accurate risk assessment and public health related information. The Center focused considerable effort to fulfill this need. Public Health leadership is a priority group for emergency preparedness training. The Columbia University Center for Public Health Preparedness is partnering with the New York City Department of Health (NYC-DOH) to develop a competency- based, basic emergency preparedness-training program for public health leaders. The session will illustrate how the partnership will provide an efficient means for providing public health leadership with training on the basic emergency preparedness competencies within the context of the agency’s overall emergency response plan. In April 2002, the training program is scheduled to be administered to the NYC-DOH. Evaluation of the program’s effectiveness will allow us to determine if this approach is effective. | |||
