DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The RMCOEH is a vibrant, innovative and growing ERG that has been in existence at the University of Utah since 1977. It is the only ERC in Region VIII (UT, CO, WY, MT, ND, SD), although these states are in the top rankings for occupational fatalities and thus have an urgent need for more OSH professionals. In the past grant period, we have made major progress, including major legislation supporting the RMCOEH, along with experiencing growth in extent and quality of all of our programs. The RMCOEH has academic programs in OMR, IH, HSAT, E&S and OIPRT and has over 150 full time, adjunct and other supporting faculty. We provide specific curricula by OHNs to teach the importance of Occupational Health Nursing to our trainees. We have growing CE and HST Programs training over 2,500 trainees per year. The RMCOEH enjoys unparalleled collaborative relationships with businesses, employee groups, governmental units, and other community organizations. These foster an atmosphere that facilitates state of the art training for OSH professionals for the 21st Century. These relationships also provide the external 'laboratories' to test research theories and develop the innovations to provide safer and healthier workplaces. We also have a highly active RMCOEH Advisory Board and a Center Executive Committee that are critical in advancing the RMCOEH's programs. The RMCOEH has the infrastructure to support the NORA, r2p and other research missions. The RMCOEH's CE and Outreach programs promote and publicize efficacious strategies and help ensure that knowledge is translated into practice. Over the next five year period, we will emphasize: (1) increasing our existing academic programs (augmenting faculty numbers and external support), (2) utilizing this proposals three NORA research projects for trainee experiences and extramural proposal development, (3) further growing our extramural NORA research programs, (4) developing a post-doctoral training program, (5) further developing distance-based education programs, (6) redeveloping a Pilot/Small Projects Program, (7) re-starting our OHN Program, and increasing integration of the RMCOEH Statistical and Economic Evaluation Unit to help us achieve our goals. The three proposed NORA Projects serve major NORA research needs, involve innovative r2p aspects, while simultaneously involving literally every RMCOEH trainee.

描述（由申请人提供）：RMCOEH是一个充满活力，创新和不断发展的ERG，自1977年以来一直存在于犹他州大学。它是第八区（犹他州、科罗拉多州、怀俄明州、蒙大拿州、新州、南达科他州）唯一的职业安全和健康委员会，尽管这些州在职业死亡率方面排名靠前，因此迫切需要更多的职业安全和健康奥什专业人员。在过去的赠款期间，我们取得了重大进展，包括支持RMCOEH的主要立法，沿着我们所有项目的范围和质量都在增长。RMCOEH在OMR，IH，HSAT，E&S和OIPRT的学术课程，并拥有超过150名全职，兼职和其他支持教师。我们通过OHN提供特定的课程，向学员传授职业健康护理的重要性。我们有不断增长的CE和HST计划，每年培训超过2,500名学员。RMCOEH与企业、员工团体、政府单位和其他社区组织享有无与伦比的合作关系。这些措施营造了一种氛围，有利于为世纪的奥什专业人员提供最先进的培训。这些关系还提供了外部“实验室”来测试研究理论和开发创新，以提供更安全和更健康的工作场所。我们还有一个非常活跃的RMCOEH咨询委员会和一个中心执行委员会，这对推进RMCOEH的计划至关重要。RMCOEH拥有支持诺拉、r2 p和其他研究任务的基础设施。RMCOEH的CE和外联方案促进和宣传有效的战略，并帮助确保知识转化为实践。在未来五年内，我们将强调：（1）增加现有的学术课程（增加教师人数和外部支持），（2）利用这一建议，三个诺拉研究项目的实习经验和校外建议的发展，（3）进一步发展我们的校外诺拉研究计划，（4）开发博士后培训计划，（5）进一步发展远程教育计划，（6）重新制定试点/小型项目计划，（7）重新启动我们的OHN计划，并加强RMCOEH统计和经济评估部门的整合，以帮助我们实现目标。这三个拟议的诺拉项目服务于主要的诺拉研究需求，涉及创新的r2 p方面，同时涉及每一个RMCOEH学员。
