This document details the guidance for criteria to develop continuing education (CE) programming in field epidemiology. [Author] The document provides information for minimum guidance to implement a CE programme at the country level. [Author] The need for field epidemiologists to strengthen a country’s capabilities in disease surveillance, outbreak investigation and response is recognized by the global health sector. [Author] Several countries already have applied epidemiology training programmes (e. [Author]g. [Author], FETP, FETPV, ISAVET) to develop or strengthen these capabilities. [Author] FAO, WHO and WOAH recognize that One Health is an integral part of these programmes, in accordance with the definition of One Health from the One Health High-Level Expert Panel. [Author]

[Author] The document is intended for in-service training programmes only and does not necessarily apply to preservice training programmes, which typically involve more didactic learning and limited field experiences. [Author] While the focus of the document is to support One Health field epidemiology training programmes, this guidance depends heavily on practices from existing primarily sector specific programmes and therefore may also be applicable for other types of FETPs.

This document details higher order One Health competencies at the subdomain level based on competencies defined in the 14 domains of the COHFE Framework. [Author] The subdomain level higher order competencies are defined in Table X. [Author]1 for each domain (numbered by domain) at three training levels (frontline, intermediate and advanced), with each level building on the previous level so that demonstration of the previous level’s competencies is required in addition to those indicated at the given level. [Author] The guidance also recommends and describes curriculum topics and provides example learning objectives for all three training levels. [Author]

Following the 27th Tripartite Annual Executive Meeting, the FAO Programme Committee in its 130th session, March 2021, requested the joint development, by the Tripartite (FAO/WHO/WOAH) and others, of a strategy and action plan to prevent future zoonotic pandemics through the One Health approach. The One Health Joint Plan of Action (OH JPA) is intended to guide the four organizations of the Quadripartite to work together on One Health with the aim of supporting their Members to build One Health capacities. It provides a framework for action and proposes a set of activities that the four organizations can offer together to enable countries to advance and scale up One Health in managing human, animal, plant and environment health threats. The framework uses a One Health approach to strengthen collaboration, communication, advocacy, and coordination equally across all sectors responsible for addressing health concerns at the human-animal-plant-environment interface.
