5. Questions for the Workgroup to Consider                                                                                           Janet Place

  • Do you think reordering competencies within a domain will create problems or cause confusion for current users of the Core Competencies?
  • Do you think moving competencies from one domain to another domain will create problems or cause confusion for current users of the Core Competencies?
  • In the draft revisions for the Financial Planning and Management Skills domain, competency 7B1 includes the phrase, “to provide public health services.”  When referring to services being provided in the community, the term “population health services” has been suggested. This term might appeal to non-governmental public health users of the Core Competencies and be seen as a negative change by governmental public health users. What are your thoughts?
