Abstract
Three models of continuing education-full-day, half-day, and brief workshop -for health providers treating patients with HIV/AIDS were compared on meas ures of effectiveness with regard to knowledge, attitude, and practice outc omes. Analyses of pre- and postintervention data from two years of training events suggest consistent, modest, program effects in the full-day and hal f-day approaches, specifically in the area of knowledge enhancement.
