Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate and analyze the training demands on health emergency management leadership and then serve as a foundation for scientifically developing training programs for health emergency management leaders in Guangxi. Non-random sampling was used to conduct a questionnaire survey on 265 health emergency management leaders of all regions, districts, and counties in Guangxi. The contents of the questionnaires included training courses, times, approaches, methods, trainer workforce, assessment approaches, and graduation identifications. The results of this study indicated that the stress of training courses included the basic knowledge on health emergency, response and management on health emergency, and methodology and technology on health emergency management. High demands on case studies, desktop maneuvers, and symposiums of training methods were 95.4%, 92.3%, 83.3%, respectively. Short-term intensive training had the highest demand (76.6%) among all training approaches. Of these 265 participants, 98.5% chose national experts as trainers, 46% chose problem-solving stimulation as assessment approach, and 76% chose certificate issuing as graduation identification. Therefore, basic knowledge on health emergency, response and management on health emergency, and methodology and technology on health emergency management should be considered as the stress of training courses. Training methods should be selected appropriately according to different demands. Short-term intensive training should be considered as training approach. Trainers should be considered as national experts who have rich practical experience and theoretical knowledge. Problem-solving stimulation should be considered as assessment approach. Certificate issuing should be considered as graduation identification. Key Words: Health emergency management,Training demands, Management leaders.
