According to Ms. Yu Xinli, who is incharge of the project as Deputy Director of the China National Institute of Standardization, theproject comprises four aspects: the international standards key breakthrough project, the technicalstandards promotion project of adapting technical trade measures, the technical standards innovationproject of basic public welfare, and the technical standard enhancement project of public security.展开更多

Many arguments have been advanced for it, the chief one being that certification is the only way through which a true GIS professional can be defined for the consumer public. There have been counter arguments, for example that certification will limit the widespread adoption of GIS technology, which is just a tool that anybody should be free to apply, or that it will only add another layer of regulation in a global political environment that favours increased de-regulation. The objective of this paper is to create greater awareness about GIS certification, which doesn’t exist yet in many countries, including some developed ones. Such increased awareness may encourage the standardization of GIS personnel qualifications, which could underpin a better, more dependable growth of the GIS industry, especially in the developing countries. Through analysis of key existing literature on the subject, plus the author’s own professional experiences, the paper explores the issues around GIS certification, looks at global trends on the issue and discusses the situation in the Kenyan GIS industry in respect of certification. The paper finds that there is a global move towards certification, and the relevant work of ISO has given the issue international attention. However, the paper also finds that the presence of a strong GIS professional association greatly assists in the development of a program for such certification, and that the lack of such an association makes it difficult to succeed.展开更多
目的探讨置信职业行为(entrustable professional activities,EPAs)的教学评价体系在甲状腺外科住院医师规范化培训(简称住培)中的可行性及效果。方法选取2022年9月至2023年12月于浙江大学医学院附属第一医院甲状腺外科参加住培的30名...目的探讨置信职业行为(entrustable professional activities,EPAs)的教学评价体系在甲状腺外科住院医师规范化培训(简称住培)中的可行性及效果。方法选取2022年9月至2023年12月于浙江大学医学院附属第一医院甲状腺外科参加住培的30名外科住院医师开展EPAs教学及置信等级评估。比较住院医师每项EPA初末两次预期置信等级评估达标率,以及不同年级整体EPA项目达标率,分析EPAs调查问卷表。结果住院医师总体末次EPAs评估达标率高于初次EPAs评估达标率(P<0.05)。住院医师分层置信评估表明,不同年级住院医师初末两次评估结果比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.05),且住院医师的年级越高,EPAs预期置信等级的整体达标率越高。调查问卷结果表明,绝大部分住院医师对EPAs教学效果表示肯定。结论EPAs的教学评估模式能综合提高甲状腺外科住院医师的预期置信等级以及核心胜任力水平,可为基于胜任力导向的住培与评价提供一定的理论依据。展开更多
