Plant quarantine is a key strategy in international plant protection efforts. This study identified the areas for knowledge and skills improvement among 108 Caribbean plant protection personnel from 20 countries. The Borich (1980) model of needs assessment was used. Results showed that respondents perceived all areas assessed as very important to their job functions. However, they perceived their proficiencies as low to average. Areas with highest training needs, as well as lowest need areas, were identified. The results can be used to revise the curricula for the regional training of plant quarantine personnel.
