veterinarians in the fellowship since
1983. PMR/F consists of a competencybased curriculum, a one-year practicum,
and sponsorship for a Master of Public
Health degree for qualified applicants
before the practicum year. PMR/F
provides its residents and fellows with
training and experience in leadership,
management, program development and
evaluation, and the translation of
epidemiology to public health practice.
During the past 15 years, the CDC
PMR/F has adapted its educational plan
and design in response to changing
public health needs, feedback from
trainees and stakeholders, internal
reviews of the residency, changes in
Accreditation Council for Graduate
Medical Education (ACGME)
requirements, and a formal national
survey of Preventive Medicine
Residency graduates conducted by CDC
in 1991. The last formal evaluation of
the program occurred as part of the 1991
survey.
CDC proposes a new project to
evaluate the PMR/F. The goals of the
evaluation are to determine: (1) How
well PMR/F is fulfilling its mission to
train competent public health
practitioners and leaders, (2) the
effectiveness of the PMR/F educational
program, and (3) PMR/F’s contribution
to its residents and fellows, the CDC,
and the larger public health community.
As part of this project, PMR/F
practicum assignment mentors, alumni,
and external preventive medicine
subject matter experts will be asked to
complete a questionnaire to provide
information that addresses the
evaluation’s goals. Below is a
description of the questionnaire’s
response burden. There is no cost to the
respondents other than their time.

Background and Brief Description
Preventive medicine is a specialized
field of medical practice that works with
large populations to promote good
health; to prevent disease, injury and
disability; and to facilitate early
diagnosis and treatment of illness. It is
unique because its central focus is
population health. Despite the nation’s
growing need for preventive-medicine
skills, numerous studies have
demonstrated an increasing shortage of
preventive medicine-trained
professionals, and that shortage is
projected to continue (American College
of Preventive Medicine; Council on
Graduate Medical Education). The
specialty will benefit from attracting
new residents, rewarding programs that
fill positions with highly qualified
candidates, and expanding the specialty
into new medical leadership roles
(Ducatman, et al., 2005).
The mission of CDC’s Preventive
Medicine Residency and Fellowship
(PMR/F) is to (1) train public health and
preventive medicine leaders, and (2)
maintain leadership in the field of
preventive medicine training. CDC’s
PMR/F has been training physicians in
