About the Modules

The Ready-to-Use STD Curriculum Modules for Clinical Educators contain comprehensive curricular materials on seven different STD topics. The modules are based on curriculum developed by the National Network of STD/HIV Prevention Training Centers which includes treatment and management recommendations of the 2002 CDC STD Treatment Guidelines.  Materials can be downloaded for classroom use. Each module contains a slide presentation, an instructor's guide, a case study, and test questions. The instructional time varies with each module, ranging from 60 to 90 minutes.

Target Audience

The target audience for these modules is faculty in clinical education programs, including those programs that train advanced practice nurses, physician assistants, and physicians.

Recommended Use of the Materials

These materials can be adapted to meet classroom needs. Slides and instructor notes are provided in Adobe Acrobat format; these files are easily downloaded because of their small size. To customize the presentations, download the documents in Microsoft Word format and the slide presentation in Microsoft PowerPoint format.
