PROJECT SUMMARY The specific aims of the training core are to: 1) provide high quality interdisciplinary biomedical and environmental science training, education and mentoring experiences to diverse trainees at the institutions participating in PROTECT; 2) extend applicable PROTECT training experiences to the greater SRP community; and 3) serve as the coordination point for training activities with, and trainee participation in, the Community Engagement and Research Translation Cores (CEC and RTC, respectively). During the current program funding, the Core has developed an effective training core program that is providing opportunities/experiences for our trainees to: 1) understand and integrate the problems and concepts of health impacts assessment of contaminated systems, contaminant detection, fate and transport, exposure routes, remediation, and information management; 2) develop competence in the applied methods underlying research core activities; and 3) advance their technical, professional and personal skills/knowledge/attitudes to motivate and prepare them for successful careers in these fields. For the renewal period, the Training Core will also: 4) provide opportunities for our trainees to participate in and contribute to CEC and RTC activities; 5) promote the awareness of environmental health and environmental science/engineering fields as career pathways to underrepresented populations through recruitment activities; and 6) serve as a resource for the RTC for training opportunities for the greater SRP community. PROTECT has been successful in creating innovative training activities that extend to the greater SRP community, and the program has demonstrated its leadership in promoting more robust and meaningful training experiences. By using a differentiated training model, the Training Core impacts students across a wide spectrum of experience, discipline and educational levels. Senior research personnel (faculty, research scientists, etc.) contribute to this core via an advisory group to develop new activities and provide feedback on existing offerings, informal training opportunities, seminar and workshop offerings, field and laboratory experiences, and mentoring. A systematic assessment and evaluation program feeds into a continuous quality improvement process to help the project team to understand, and modify as necessary, the interactions between the education/training activities and the research cores. To date, PROTECT has recruited 72 trainees, 62% of whom are women and 57% of whom are Hispanic. Trainees have participated in 20 webinars, 5 skill-builder workshops, and 13 town meetings, which they broadly rated as "useful" or "very useful." In addition, trainees made a total of 95 presentations of their research at SRP meetings, a PROTECT retreat and at other research conferences (72 internal presentations and 23 external). Trainees have been authors on 38 refereed publications related to PROTECT research to date. Ten trainees have completed their degrees, and three have secured professorships.

项目概要 培训核心的具体目标是：1）提供高质量的跨学科生物医学和 为各机构的不同学员提供环境科学培训、教育和指导经验 参与保护； 2) 将适用的 PROTECT 培训经验扩展到更大的 SRP 社区; 3) 作为培训活动和受训者参与的协调点 社区参与和研究翻译核心（分别为 CEC 和 RTC）。 在当前的计划资助期间，核心开发了一个有效的培训核心计划，该计划是 为我们的学员提供机会/经验：1）理解并整合问题和概念 受污染系统的健康影响评估、污染物检测、归宿和运输、暴露 路线、补救和信息管理； 2）培养基础应用方法的能力 研究核心活动； 3) 提高他们的技术、专业和个人技能/知识/态度 激励他们并为他们在这些领域取得成功的职业生涯做好准备。在续订期间，培训核心将 另外： 4) 为我们的学员提供参与 CEC 和 RTC 活动并为其做出贡献的机会； 5） 促进环境健康和环境科学/工程领域的意识作为职业 通过招聘活动接触代表性不足的人群的途径； 6) 作为资源 RTC 为更大的 SRP 社区提供培训机会。 PROTECT已成功创建 创新的培训活动扩展到更大的 SRP 社区，并且该计划已经证明了其 在促进更稳健、更有意义的培训体验方面发挥领导作用。通过采用差异化培训 模型中，培训核心对学生产生广泛的经验、学科和教育影响 水平。高级研究人员（教师、研究科学家等）通过咨询为这一核心做出贡献 小组开发新活动并就现有产品、非正式培训机会提供反馈， 研讨会和讲习班、现场和实验室经验以及指导。系统评估 和评估计划纳入持续的质量改进过程，以帮助项目团队 了解并根据需要修改教育/培训活动与 研究核心。迄今为止，PROTECT已招募了72名学员，其中62%是女性，其中57%是女性 是西班牙裔。学员参加了 20 场网络研讨会、5 场技能培养研讨会和 13 场城镇会议， 他们普遍评价为“有用”或“非常有用”。此外，学员们总共做了95场演讲 他们在 SRP 会议、PROTECT 务虚会和其他研究会议上的研究（72 个内部 演示文稿和 23 个外部）。学员是 38 份与 PROTECT 相关的参考出版物的作者 迄今为止的研究。十名学员已完成学位，三人获得教授职位。
