The original WHO and CDC PMTCT Generic Training Package (GTP) was created in 2004 and updated in early 2008. The GTP is a comprehensive, evidence-based course developed for implementation in resource-limited settings. It was designed to be adapted at the country or regional level to meet participant learning needs, and reflect national policy and local context. The process of adapting the curriculum for country use facilitates stakeholder input and provides a context for reviewing existing materials (policies, procedures, and curricula) in light of current science and evidence-based practice. It also provides a framework for updating existing policy, developing materials where needed, and considering the implications of implementing PMTCT services in a range of clinical settings. This curriculum is a mechanism for developing and sustaining human capacity building for PMTCT programmes.
