Southeast AETC Regional Conference 2024
Register Here

The Southeast AETC Regional Conference 2024 is a 2.5 day VIRTUAL conference aimed at healthcare professionals who are novices in HIV care. Sessions are NOT targeted towards healthcare professionals who have an intermediate to advanced level of HIV knowledge, though all are welcome to attend. We will offer both clinical and non-clinical tracks. 

  • The clinical track will be ideal for providers in primary care and other non-HIV specialty settings who wish to provide HIV testing, prevention, and treatment of uncomplicated HIV. Providers who have recently graduated from a health professional program, or have recently been hired to work in an HIV setting, may also benefit from this track. 

  • The non-clinical track will be geared toward administrators, case managers, and other clinic support staff. It will be ideal for healthcare workers in non-HIV specialty clinics seeking to provide more HIV services, or those who have recently been hired to work in an HIV setting. 

We encourage you to ask questions in the chatbox, explore and get familiar with the virtual conference platform, and take advantage of this time to connect with HIV experts. If you have a question after the presentation ends or want to chat about other topics around HIV care, a chat will open on each stage between presentations. Check out our website for additional training and technical assistance at seaetc.com.

On behalf of the SE AETC partners, we hope that you engage with the program, ask questions, and have a wonderful time at our virtual conference!
