The Competency-to-Curriculum Toolkit is presented to the public health workforce training and education community as an aid in assuring that the workforce who are key to the public health infrastructure, is truly competent to perform essential public health services in all areas of public health practice.

In the world of public health practice, many of those charged with developing on-the-job training and education for workers are not professional educators, nor do they have specific expertise in selecting the appropriate material to teach. The information contained in the Competency-to-Curriculum Toolkit may prove to be of help to those involved in public health workforce education as well as individual workers interested in life-long learning.
