The Sectoral Qualifications Framework for Public Health presents the process of developing the SQF PH by experts at the Educational Research Institute and National Institute of Public Health – National Institute of Hygiene with extensive consultations in the sector. The overarching aim of SQF PH is to stimulate and develop the implementation potential of the public health sector in Poland and to strive to improve the quality of its services. The publication includes: a description of project implementation and methodology, the structure of the framework, recommendations on its use, and a glossary of relevant terms. The Framework itself presents key public health competences at 7 levels―from 2 to 8, categorized by knowledge, skills and social competence. These are further divided into three main areas: 1) meeting the needs of the community/beneficiaries/target groups by respecting the subjectivity of the participants, ethical principles and the confidentiality of personal data; 2) effectiveness, efficiency, sustainability and accountability through planning and evaluation; and, 3) assuming a multisectoral and interdisciplinary approach through cooperation and partnership.
