This course is very informative and an excellent source for clinicians who want to become familiar with and comfortable identifying at-risk population and prescribing PrEP. Highly recommended.

I enjoyed many of the lectures including the videos and powerpoints for patients as it sometimes simplified the more technical provider videos. I would reccomend this course to any PrEP implementer. I would suggest though that the lecture materials focus equally on other Key populations and followed more contexts such as Africa, Asia, Europe etc

Some of the Videos were a bit redundant and lengthy, but I can see a need to drive home many of your great points in the presentations. Overall this was excellent and highly recommended course!

Informative, but I felt the program should have directed more to the AGE group 12-18.

The course was informative and helpful for both physicians and providers based on content. However, I do think that based on other courses that are available for physicians this course happened to be one of the more redundant and drawn out courses that could have easily been made more succinct. Within the provider sections alone there seemed to be no collaboration between the lecturers as some repeated the same information over and over which made the course irritating at times. This course could be so much better if better planned between the speakers. But in terms of what I learned, I would say it was good just a little to repetitive as someone in the field.

While this was very informative and helpful to me as a health educator, the presenters were very bland and many videos seemed rather redundant since they were repeating so many main points of previous videos.

Should have been better organized. I would have preferred a lesson directed either at providers or at patients as separate modules. The back and forth between the focus seemed a bit ridiculous and greatly reduced the flow of the materials.

Even though the course is informative, the instructors need to teach actively so that we are motivated to learn instantly. Actually, we become bored while listening to the lesson only for a few minutes.
