The International Training and Education Center on HIV

The International Training and Education Center on HIV (I-TECH), with 550 employees working from 10 field offices around the world (Botswana, Ethiopia, Guyana, Haiti, India, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Tanzania), has grown rapidly to become one of the largest health workforce training programs in the world. I-TECH is co-led by Ann Downer, EdD, a leader in creating effective training programs that move educational theory into practice; Michael Reyes, MD, MPH, a family medicine physician at Univ. of California San Francisco; and King Holmes, MD, PhD, the director of the Department of Global Health, who has trained and/or mentored over 100 scientists involved in HIV/sexually transmitted research and care. The three leaders bring together disciplines that create a strong programming of medicine, public health, and education.
