This course is designed to train faculty to conduct the Ask, Screen, Intervene (ASI) training. You will receive the ASI training and learn how to present the curriculum. ASI is designed to enhance clinicians' efforts to incorporate HIV prevention into the medical care of persons living with HIV. The four modules that comprise the training are:

• effective screening for behavioral HIV-transmission risk factors and appropriate STD screening for HIV-positive patients;
• delivering universal prevention messages;
• providing tailored prevention interventions; and
• the importance of Partner Services in the care of patients. 

This skills-building class is designed for clinicians who provide care for persons with HIV, and promotes the use of the clinical encounter for the prevention of HIV transmission.
