Communication and teaching

Physicians working in the field of occupational and environmental medicine, through the patient-related work, business assignments, literature studies and research, gain significant knowledge about the environment, including the health and safety of the working environment. In order for this knowledge to be used for prevention, the specialist doctor should be able to convey it to colleagues, other professional groups, companies and communities during teaching, meetings and writting. The dissemination must be adapted to the target groups' academic and linguistic requirements.

After completion of specialist medical training, the specialist must be able to:

1 Education
  1. Schedule and complete teaching medical students, doctors in other specialties, and students on occupational health
2 Communication
  1. Write articles and comments to trade magazines, staff magazines, daily press or similar in electronic media
  2. Handle inquiries from the press about occupational and environmental medicine issues
