The purpose of this 4 year, 7 month funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to create a national network of STD Clinical Prevention Training Centers (NNPTC) that comprises up to eight regional (Component A) and six national (Component B) centers of excellence. The PTCs will develop, disseminate and evaluate training and training assistance to improve STD care at the individual health care clinician, clinical organization and health care system level. The overarching goal is to reduce population level STD burden throughout the United States. Training content and priorities for this FOA are based on the current CDC STD treatment guidelines, which encompass screening, treatment, and prevention of STDs, and are informed by STD epidemiological trends and scientific advancements.
