title: [Towards establishing a platform of shared skills sets and competencies for public health doctors].
abstract: School physicians, public health medical officers and inspectors, and doctors who work in local public authorities and in the local services of the Ministry of Health all share a common public health skills set even if the activities and functions which they perform are quite different, and in some cases even very specific to their field of practice. After a cross-sectional review of their indispensable roles and tasks, we designed a referential system for shared competencies and have presented it to various active professionals. This tool serves as a starting point which has permitted us to tackle questions relating to the professionalisation, evaluation, and multi-disciplinary nature of these doctors. It also aims to contribute to the current reflection on the level of public health training necessary for all medical practitioners and doctors, but above and beyond that, more specifically for public health professionals.
