analyzing factors influencing satisfaction and dissatisfaction with field training for dental technicians and college students. The aim was to provide useful data for optimizing field training operations. Methods: An online survey was conducted from July 21 to July 23, 2024, targeting dental technology students across the country who had experienced field training. A total of 111 responses were analyzed. The reliability of the satisfaction factor items for field training was Cronbach’s α=0.853, and for the dissatisfaction factor items, Cronbach’s α=0.850. Data were statistically analyzed using SPSS 21.0 (IBM). Results: Higher satisfaction with field training resulted in stronger, positive, statistically significant correlations with educational content (p=0.001), expertise and program (p=0.003), communication (p=0.001), and other factors, such as evaluation and ethics (p=0.004). Negative correlations were observed between satisfaction with field training and dissatisfaction factors related to educational content (p=0.020), distance (p=0.038), environment (p=0.026), and welfare (p=0.034). Conclusion: Competency indicators and behavioral characteristics of field training leaders were identified. The final result included five competencies and 14 behavioral indicators.
