Background: Mongolia is one of the most influenced countries by non-communicable diseases among developing countries. Non-communicable diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, cancers, respiratory diseases, diabetes, and injuries have become the major causes of morbidity and mortality in Mongolia.Goal: To assess impact of preventive intervention activities of non-communicable diseases in framework of the Millennium challenge account (MCA) health projectMethods: We conducted 17 focus group discussions (FGD) from March to April 2013 in primary and secondary health care settings, of which six in urban and eleven in rural areas.We identified themes concerning the current situation of NCD related health services from the perspective of health professionals, and insights into institutional and professional experiences related to management, implementation and coordination of the newly implemented MCA-Mongolia NCD prevention and control project.Results: As a result of the health project, NCD related knowledge and skills of health professionals have improved through progressive training, and development of guidelines and manuals. During the project, availability of equipment supplies has improved. Accordingly, medical equipment and laboratory reagents needed for early detection of NCDs were provided to primary and secondary health care settings, despite some challenges in the implementation of the project. As result of theproject implementation, increased public awareness on NCDs, and attitude change were considered as the biggest changes.Conclusion: The health project was considered as successful to provide knowledge on the best practice in NCD prevention.

Justification: Researchers highlighted an importance of health professionals’ participation (1), (2), a role on behavior change in primary health care services (3)evidence based health policy and program (4)(5) байгааг and health promotion to reduce a prevalence of both communicable and non-communicable diseases in Mongolia. Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences trains public health researchers and health social workers in the last ten years. It has been developed a guideline of required compulsory professional competence in which, students of SPH should acquire knowledge, skills including behavior change strategy and implement interventions, behavior change assessment at individual, family, group and community levels. Purpose: Aim of this research is to identify key words and content of "health Behavior" and "health Promotion" in undergraduate courses of School of public health (SPH) and compare with a content of compulsory professional competence requirements. Methodology and Materials: We used a summative content analysis [6] to identify key words and content of ‘’health behavior’’ and ‘’health promotion’’ in 140 courses between 2009 and 2016 and compared with 17 required compulsory professional competence in blue print guideline [7]. Results: Planned academic hours of ‘’health behavior and promotion’’ in courses of health social work was insufficient and they covered several theories with no content of implementation, application, evidence based practices and examples. For students of public health researchers, there are required compulsory 8 skills of health behavior, however skills and knowledge were slightly covered in courses of ”food safety”, “health of kids and adolescent” and “occupational health”. Conclusion Undergraduate courses for health social workers and public health researchers were based solely on “individual health behavior theories’’. The included content of the theory, application of organization and community behaviors was insufficient in the existing “health behavior” course.
