PROJECT SUMMARY The specific aims of the training core are to: 1) provide high quality interdisciplinary biomedical and environmental science training, education and mentoring experiences to diverse trainees at the institutions participating in PROTECT; 2) extend applicable PROTECT training experiences to the greater SRP community; and 3) serve as the coordination point for training activities with, and trainee participation in, the Community Engagement and Research Translation Cores (CEC and RTC, respectively). During the current program funding, the Core has developed an effective training core program that is providing opportunities/experiences for our trainees 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. For the renewal period, the Training Core will also: 4) provide opportunities for our trainees to participate in and contribute to CEC and RTC activities; 5) promote the awareness of environmental health and environmental science/engineering fields as career pathways to underrepresented populations through recruitment activities; and 6) serve as a resource for the RTC for training opportunities for the greater SRP community. PROTECT has been successful in creating innovative training activities that extend to the greater SRP community, and the program has demonstrated its leadership in promoting more robust and meaningful training experiences. By using a differentiated training model, the Training Core impacts students across a wide spectrum of experience, discipline and educational levels. Senior research personnel (faculty, research scientists, etc.) contribute to this core via an advisory group to develop new activities and provide feedback on existing offerings, informal training opportunities, seminar and workshop offerings, field and laboratory experiences, and mentoring. A systematic assessment and evaluation program feeds 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. To date, PROTECT has recruited 72 trainees, 62% of whom are women and 57% of whom are Hispanic. Trainees have participated in 20 webinars, 5 skill-builder workshops, and 13 town meetings, which they broadly rated as "useful" or "very useful." In addition, trainees made a total of 95 presentations of their research at SRP meetings, a PROTECT retreat and at other research conferences (72 internal presentations and 23 external). Trainees have been authors on 38 refereed publications related to PROTECT research to date. Ten trainees have completed their degrees, and three have secured professorships.

项目总结 培训核心的具体目标是：1)提供高质量的跨学科生物医学和 为各机构的不同受训人员提供环境科学培训、教育和指导经验 参与保护；2)将适用的保护培训经验扩展到更大的SRP 社区；以及3)作为培训活动的协调点，并让学员参与 社区参与和研究翻译核心(分别为CEC和RTC)。 在目前的计划资金期间，核心制定了一个有效的培训核心计划，即 为我们的学员提供机会/经验：1)理解和整合问题和概念 对受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；2)发展应用方法的能力 研究核心活动；以及3)提高他们的技术、专业和个人技能/知识/态度，以 激励他们并为他们在这些领域成功的职业生涯做好准备。在续订期间，培训核心将 此外：4)为我们的学员提供参与CEC和RTC活动并做出贡献的机会；5) 促进环境健康和环境科学/工程领域的职业意识 通过招聘活动接触任职人数偏低的人口的途径；以及6)作为 RTC为更大的SRP社区提供培训机会。Protect已经成功地创建了 扩展到更大的SRP社区的创新培训活动，该计划已经展示了其 在促进更稳健和更有意义的培训体验方面发挥领导作用。通过使用差异化培训 作为一种模式，培训核心影响着学生的各种经验、学科和教育背景 级别。高级研究人员(教职员工、研究科学家等)通过咨询为这一核心做出贡献 小组开发新的活动，并就现有产品、非正式培训机会、 研讨会和讲习班，实地和实验室经验，以及指导。系统的评估 和评估计划进入持续的质量改进过程，以帮助项目团队 了解并根据需要修改教育/培训活动与 研究核心。迄今为止，保护组织已经招募了72名受训人员，其中62%是妇女，57%是妇女。 都是西班牙裔。学员参加了20次网络研讨会、5次技能培训讲习班和13次城镇会议， 他们普遍认为这是“有用的”或“非常有用的”。此外，学员共作了95次演讲 他们在SRP会议、保护静修和其他研究会议上的研究(72个内部 介绍情况和23个外部情况)。受训人员已在38个与保护有关的参考出版物上担任作者 到目前为止的研究。10名实习生完成了学位，3名获得了教授职位。
