As part of the “Field Management Training Program of Chronic Disease Control and Community Health Survey,” this study analyzed the levels of knowledge, attitude, and practical skill in those who completed the training program in 2017, in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the training, and also examined the potential influencing factors. Out of 242 individuals who completed the program, 205 participated in the survey. Subjects’ knowledge, attitude, and practical skill were evaluated, and each of these was scored out of 100. Subjects were assigned to one of the three categories based on their scores: low-performance group (those scoring less than 60), mid-performance group (those scoring 60 or more but less than 80), and high-performance group (those scoring 80 or more). The effect of training changed with time and were as follows. Among those who completed the training in 2017, the proportion of those displaying high-performance group increased greatly for knowledge, from 0.9% (before) to 26.0% (after the training), and still maintained at 25.9% after 6 months. For attitude, the proportion of those displaying high-performance group changed from 32.2% (before) to 58.3% (after the training), and even increased to 67.6% (6 months after). For practical skill, the proportion of those displaying high-performance group changed from 5.1% (before) and 34.6% (after the training), and decreased slightly to 28.8% but mostly maintained to the level obtained just after training. The analysis between personal characteristics and scores in knowledge, attitude, and practical skill indicated that as participants’ age and work experience at the health center increased, the scores for practical skill increased but scores for knowledge decreased. In conclusion, "Field Management Training Program of Chronic Disease Control and Community Health Survey" greatly improved the levels of knowledge, attitude, and practical skill, and the effect of the training was maintained for 6 months or more.
