Globally, there has not been a standardised approach to ensure that the growing number of people who are not licensed clinicians but are delivering psychological interventions and mental health services have the competencies to deliver those interventions and services safely. Therefore, WHO and UNICEF developed Ensuring Quality in Psychosocial and Mental Health Care (EQUIP). EQUIP is a free resource with a digital platform that can be used to guide competency assessment. We describe EQUIP's 5-year development (2018–23) and the rationale supporting its contents and use. Development phases included establishing consensus for competency-based strategies; selecting foundational competencies; evaluating feasibility of assessments, role plays, and technology; piloting EQUIP when training non-specialists; and public dissemination and ongoing adaptations to increase scalability. From the public launch in March, 2022, through to March, 2024, EQUIP's digital platform has been used in 794 training programmes in 36 countries with 3760 trainees resulting in 10 001 competency assessments.

基于能力的培训和监督：制定 WHO-UNICEF 确保社会心理和心理健康保健质量 （EQUIP） 倡议


在全球范围内，还没有一种标准化的方法来确保越来越多的非持证临床医生但提供心理干预和心理健康服务的人有能力安全地提供这些干预和服务。因此，世卫组织和联合国儿童基金会制定了确保社会心理和心理健康保健质量 （EQUIP）。EQUIP 是一个免费资源，具有可用于指导能力评估的数字平台。我们描述了 EQUIP 的 5 年发展（2018-23 年）以及支持其内容和使用的基本原理。开发阶段包括为基于能力的战略建立共识;选择基础能力;评估评估、角色扮演和技术的可行性;在培训非专业人员时试行 EQUIP;以及公众传播和持续调整以提高可扩展性。从 2022 年 3 月公开发布到 2024 年 3 月，EQUIP 的数字平台已被用于 36 个国家/地区的 794 个培训计划，涉及 3760 名学员，进行了 10001 次能力评估。
