For combatants without systematic medical education experience (CSMEE), it is necessary to participate in first-aid on the battlefield, but currently there is no effective training curriculum for CSMEE in Chinese military. Materials and Methods A list of first-aid techniques based on expert consensus was formed, and then a curriculum was established according to the list. The effectiveness of the curriculum was further evaluated by comparing the scores among group A (the reserve officers trained by this curriculum), group B (the reserve officers in the military medical college trained by professional medic training system), and group C (the fresh officers trained by the Outline of Military Training and Assessment of Chinese military), through a 5-station assessment in a simulated battlefield environment, which included the following 5 techniques: tourniquet for massive extremities hemorrhage, thyrocricocentesis, thoracentesis, fixation of long bone fractures, and wound dressing with hemostatic bandage. Results The training curriculum entitled “Implementation and Assessment Standards of First-aid Training for Combatants on the Battlefield” was established. The comparison of average scores in the 5-station assessment showed that group A had better scores than group C in tourniquet for massive extremity hemorrhage, thyrocricocentesis, and thoracentesis, with no significant differences compared with group B. Also, no significant difference between groups A and B in overall completion time and overall scores was observed, whereas an excellent candidate rate in overall score of group B was better than that of group A (87.4% vs. 80.9%, χ2 = 4.40, p = 0.036), and group A was better than group C (80.9% vs. 37.5%, χ2 = 62.01, p &amp;lt; 0.001). Conclusion The established training curriculum is indeed effective, which improved the CSMEE’s first-aid capacity on the battlefield, and is equivalent to the level of medics.
