Effective HAI prevention and control in healthcare organisations relies on specialised infection control staff inchargeof elaborating, implementing and monitoring local preventive measures such as hand hygiene and patientisolation. Training in infection control and the epidemiology of healthcare-associated infections was also the topic of one ofthework packages of the Improving Patient Safety in Europe project (IPSE), Education of Infection Control nurses or Practitioners (ICP) is commonly well organized and regulated, and in some countries federally regulated with number of credit hours and final exam.In Switzerland, ICPs training is federally regulated since 2009, and all ICPs must pass a final national exam. In contrast, there is no formal training for hospital epidemiologist.
I therefore provided the background to create a concept for training to receive a diploma/title “hospital epidemiologist”
For the Swiss Society for Infectious diseases (president: Nicola Mueller).
Post-doc training for physician is organized by Schweizerische Institut für ärztliche Weiter- und Fortbildung (SIWF)
(https://www.fmh.ch/siwf/siwf/ueber-das-siwf/portraet.cfm). Swissnoso is the current association of the Swiss hospital epidemiologist who have earned a board certification in internal medicine as well as infectious diseases, and are mainly working as head of hospital epidemiology at large hospitals. However, there is a need for mid-size hospital as well as smaller hospitals to have an in-house or an associated physician with specific training in HE.Therefore, I have created a proposal for SIWF) for hospital epidemiology, that requires a training in Infectious disease and at least one year specific training in hospital epidemiology at a university hospital.

In most European and non-European countries including the USA, there is no formal training requirements for hospital epidemiologist. In Northern European countries, HEs are mainly trained as clinical microbiologist, in the USA as Infectioius disease specialists.(Table 2)
In 2018, The Swiss association for training of physicians (SWIF) accepted the training program for HE, as subspeciality of Infectious Diseases. In includes 3 years of internal medicine, 3 years for infectious diseases with at least 18 clinical services, 2 peer-reviewed papers, and one year of hospital epidemiology at a university hospitals with specific division of hospital epidemiology.

• Most countries including the USA lack a federally regulated training program for physicians for hospital epidemiology (HE)
• 2 of 3 European countries just recently accepted a formal title with defined requirements for HE
• In contrast to physicians, training for infection control nurses and practitioners is much more advances compared to similar training for physician
