Medical and veterinary students are not exposed to One Health approach to managing infectious diseases in the traditional university curriculum. To increase their knowledge and capacity on One Health, the Malaysian One Health University Network (MyOHUN) has been developing One Health training programmes for medical, veterinary, ecosystem and health allied students. However, the effectiveness of the One Health training programmes is unknown. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of MyOHUN One Health training programmes by assessing students’ reaction, learning, and behaviour levels of the Kirkpatrick training evaluation model. A quantitative survey was conducted, and the results showed that MyOHUN training programmes positively encourage the respondents to understand and appreciate one health. Participants enjoyed the training programmes, learned about One Health, and applied the learnings from the training programmes into their current practices. MyOHUN may use the findings to evaluate further the effectiveness of other MyOHUN training programmes conducted in the same or different areas and encourage universities to integrate One Health activities in their curriculum using MyOHUN activities as a case study.
