title: Training and education in occupational health in China.
abstract: Training programmes in Occupational Health in the People's Republic of China have been expanded and improved tremendously since 10 years ago. There are 26 faculties of Public Health in the medical schools taking undergraduate students for a six-year basic training which leads to the degree of Bachelor of Medicine and Public Health. A three-year postgraduate course leading to the Master's degree in Occupational Health and two more years' specialist course for the doctorate degree in Occupational Health are offered by the Institute of Occupational Medicine, Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine and six training centres for occupational health. Continuing education at multi-level seems to be of great benefit, yet needs further development.
