Thirty experts were invited to participate in a two rounds consultation to establish the program. Results After two rounds of expert consultation,the positive coefficients of consultations were 91%（30/33） and 100%（30/30）respectively. The authority coefficient of experts was 0.94,and the Kendall coordination coefficients were 0.223 and 0.356（P<0.001） respectively. The final established emergency specialty nurse training program consisted of 4 parts. The training objective part included 3 first-level indicators and 25 second-level indicators. The training content part included 6 first-level indicators and 44 second-level indicators. The training management part included 5 first-level indicators and 10 second-level indicators.
