The National Ebola Training and Education Center (NETEC) was established in 2015 in response to the 2014-2016 Ebola virus disease outbreak in West Africa. The US Department of Health and Human Services office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention sought to increase the competency of healthcare and public health workers, as well as the capability of healthcare facilities in the United States, to deliver safe, efficient, and effective care to patients infected with Ebola and other special pathogens nationwide. NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue, Emory University, and the University of Nebraska Medical Center/Nebraska Medicine were awarded this cooperative agreement, based in part on their experience in safely and successfully evaluating and treating patients with Ebola virus disease in the United States. In 2016, NETEC received a supplemental award to expand on 3 initial primary tasks: (1) develop metrics and conduct peer review assessments; (2) develop and provide educational materials, resources, and tools, including exercise design templates; (3) provide expert training and technical assistance; and, to add a fourth task, create a special pathogens clinical research network.
国家埃博拉培训和教育中心（NETEC）成立于 2015 年，是为应对 2014-2016 年西非埃博拉病毒病疫情而设立的。美国卫生与公众服务部助理部长准备和应对办公室以及美国疾病控制与预防中心希望提高美国医疗保健和公共卫生工作者的能力，以及美国医疗机构的能力，以便在全国范围内为感染埃博拉和其他特殊病原体的患者提供安全、高效和有效的护理。纽约市健康与医院/贝尔维尤、埃默里大学和内布拉斯加大学医学中心/内布拉斯加医学中心基于其在美国安全、成功评估和治疗埃博拉病毒病患者的经验，获得了这项合作协议。2016 年，NETEC 获得了一项补充拨款，以扩大最初的三项主要任务：（1）制定指标并进行同行评审评估；（2）开发和提供教育材料、资源和工具，包括演习设计模板；（3）提供专家培训和技术援助；并增加第四项任务，创建特殊病原体临床研究网络。
