Abstract: Under the ongoing COVID-19 epidemic, an in-depth thinking was given on several strategic issues of public health education and workforce training in China, from the perspective of social system, instead of just health and medical centric. Public health education needs to extend from human health-centric to healthy people, healthy animals, and a healthy environment, i.e., One Health. In addition, more attention should be paid to the role of innovative biomedical technology and digital technology in public health protection. Under the concepts of Public Health 3.0, One Health, and health security, it is suggested to attach great importance to the public health education and workforce training from the strategic level of national security and health for all. A large public health clinical training system that combines college, post-graduate, and continuing education systems should be built. At the post-graduation stage, a public health physician training system needs to be established and incorporated into the standardized training system for resident doctors. Education reforms may start with the establishment of an accreditation system, redesign of curriculum, and an examination of the core competencies in public health. The institutional exchanges between the medical system and the CDC system should be improved. It is also important to strengthen the regular training for local health administrative leaders on the ability of both diseases control and emergency preparations.
