In this training session, we attempt to cover many of the aspects of this devastating disease. We hope to give the learner, a broad understanding of the issues surrounding HIV and AIDS, the developments to stop the spread and treatment of the disease, and most of all the knowledge and power to protect yourself, your colleagues and your loved ones so that in future years HIV and AIDS becomes a distant memory, only to be read about in history books.
