Evaluation of a sexually transmitted disease/human immunodeficiency virus prevention train-the-trainer program.
In this study, a behavioral intervention known as the STD/HIV Intervention Program (SHIP) was implemented at the Navy preventive medicine technician (PMT) school as a "train-the-trainer" course. Course evaluation questionnaires were administered to PMT students immediately after the training. Follow-up interviews evaluating the SHIP course were conducted with PMTs (N = 73) 1 year after the training. PMT students were fairly satisfied with SHIP overall, as well as with specific components of the course. As hypothesized, the SHIP train-the-trainer course was considered useful by most PMTs in their first duty assignments after completing PMT school.
