abstract: Eventhough the training course in the community hospital had on favorable effect on the knowledge about the rural dental health system of both the student under and not under the compulsory act, it had unfavorable effect on the knowledge about the rural health delivery system. The student under the compulsory act had also good attitude towards teamwork and the practice in the rural area while the student not under the act had only good attitude towards teamwork but poor attitude towards the practice in the rural area. To train the dentist is more suitable for the future role, it is recommended that the training course should be well performed and conformed with the real situation.
