DESCRIPTION (Provided by applicant): This proposed continuing education program in Hazardous Substance Training (HST) will be an interdisciplinary effort within the Johns Hopkins Education and Research Center for Occupational Safety and Health, and will build on the strengths of the existing continuing education and outreach program. Faculty from the ERC core programs of occupational and environmental health nursing, occupational medicine residency, and occupational and environmental hygiene will also play a key role in this program. The HST Program will meet the following long term objectives: ? Develop and implement a program of instruction to take place form 7/1/06-6/30/07; ? Coordinate training activities with agencies responsible for cleanup, enforcement, and training of personnel who deal with hazardous substances; ? Implement web base modules, short courses and continuing education programs for private, state and local health and environmental professionals and workers involved in evaluating, managing and handling hazardous substances; and ? Conduct evaluations to demonstrate that the regional needs for training professionals are being met All occupational health and environmental personnel must be adequately prepared to evaluate, manage and/or handle hazardous substances and natural disasters based on their level of training. The HST Program will provide Public Health professionals and workers from a variety of sectors the skills needed to develop strategies to protect persons, property and the environment. The terrorist attack of 9/11 and natural disasters such as Hurricane Katrina demonstrate the relevance of hazardous substance training to public health. In response to such events, we have developed a model for worker training that addresses variable needs across sectors. This HST program will build on that model plus the past training experience of this ERC.

描述(由申请人提供)：这一拟议的危险物质培训(HST)继续教育计划将是约翰霍普金斯职业安全与健康教育和研究中心内的一项跨学科努力，并将建立在现有继续教育和外展计划的优势基础上。职业与环境健康护理、职业医学实习以及职业与环境卫生等ERC核心项目的教师也将在该项目中发挥关键作用。 HST计划将实现以下长期目标： ？制定和实施从2007年7月1日至2007年6月30日的指导计划； ？与负责清理、执行和培训处理危险物质的人员的机构协调培训活动； ？为参与评估、管理和处理危险物质的私人、州和地方卫生和环境专业人员和工人实施网络基础模块、短期课程和继续教育方案；以及 ？进行评估，以证明该地区对培训专业人员的需求正在得到满足 所有职业健康和环境人员必须做好充分准备，以便根据他们的培训水平评估、管理和/或处理危险物质和自然灾害。HST计划将为公共卫生专业人员和来自不同部门的工作人员提供制定保护人员、财产和环境战略所需的技能。9/11恐怖袭击和卡特里娜飓风等自然灾害证明了危险物质培训与公共卫生的相关性。为了应对这些事件，我们制定了一种工人培训模式，以满足不同部门的不同需求。这项HST计划将建立在该模式以及该ERC过去的培训经验的基础上。
