With the economic and social development, the public’s demand for public health services has increased in China, and the functions of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention have also been transformed. While most Centers for Disease Control and Prevention currently have some degree of reform in their staffing and distribution systems, there have been few changes in the appointment and selection of their staff. Through literature review, this article will demonstrate the importance of establishing the scientific and effective competency indicator system for grassroots public health practitioners, so as to provide reference for human resource management of district and county level CDC.
