No government, organization or individual involved in HIV/AIDS prevention has all the skills, knowledge, and experience to be optimally effective without some form of basic or additional training. Since its creation in 1997, the Regional AIDS Training Network (RATN) has provided skills training and upgrading, extension services and technical assistance in East and Southern Africa to health and allied workers in the field of HIV/AIDS and other STDs. This publication describes how RATN develops and presents new training courses through collaboration with Partner Institutions around the region and simultaneously works to establish a formal network of training institutions which is governed by its members.
