The aim of the training core is to provide high quality interdisciplinary biomedical and non-biomedical training, education and mentoring for the diverse group of students at the institutions participating in the PRoTECT program. To achieve this aim, we have developed an effective training core program that will enable students to: 1) understand and integrate the problems and concepts of health impacts assessment of contaminated systems, contaminant detection, fate and transport, exposure routes, remediation, and information management; 2) develop competence in the applied methods underlying research core activities; and 3) advance their technical, professional and personal skills/knowledge/attitudes to motivate and prepare them for successful careers in these fields. The training core will impact students across a wide spectrum of experience, discipline and educational levels resulting in both vertically (education/experience) and horizontally (discipline) integrated training, education and mentoring. Senior research core personnel (faculty, research scientists, etc.) will contribute to this core via new and enhanced course offerings, informal training opportunities, seminar and workshop offerings, field and laboratory experiences, and mentoring junior personnel. The training core begins with effective recruiting of human resources at all levels, from undergraduate students through post-doctoral fellows, with particular emphasis on recruiting from groups underrepresented in the affected disciplines. Along with a myriad of support mechanisms (including scholarships, stipends, and various training/education programs) a "ladder" mentoring/training system will be implemented, whereby those at various levels benefit from the knowledge and experience of those above them, and in turn, mentor and train those junior to them, with the goal of moving each person to the next rung on the professional ladder. A systematic assessment and evaluation program will feed into a continuous quality improvement process to help the project team to understand, and modify as necessary, the interactions between the education/training activities and the research cores. This will optimize the impact on human resources required for the research activities and how those activities provide tools and opportunities for educational and professional development.

培训核心的目的是为参加保护方案的各机构的不同学生群体提供高质量的跨学科生物医学和非生物医学培训、教育和指导。为了实现这一目标，我们制定了一个有效的培训核心计划，使学生能够：1)理解和整合污染系统的健康影响评估、污染物检测、命运和运输、暴露路线、补救和信息管理的问题和概念；2)培养研究核心活动的应用方法能力；3)提高他们的技术、专业和个人技能/知识/态度，以激励和准备他们在这些领域的成功职业生涯。培训核心将影响各种经验、学科和教育水平的学生，从而产生纵向（教育/经验）和横向（学科）综合培训、教育和指导。高级研究核心人员（教师，研究科学家等）将通过新的和增强的课程提供，非正式培训机会，研讨会和讲习班提供，现场和实验室经验，以及指导初级人员，为这一核心做出贡献。培训的核心是从有效地招聘各级人力资源开始，从本科生到博士后，特别强调从受影响学科中代表性不足的群体中招聘。除了各种支持机制（包括奖学金、津贴和各种培训/教育计划）外，还将实施“阶梯”指导/培训制度，即不同层次的人员从上级的知识和经验中受益，然后再指导和培训下级，目标是使每个人都能在职业阶梯上达到下一个梯级。一个系统的评估和评估程序将会进入一个持续的质量改进过程，以帮助项目团队理解，并在必要时修改教育/培训活动和研究核心之间的相互作用。这将优化对研究活动所需人力资源的影响，以及这些活动如何为教育和专业发展提供工具和机会。
