The first ever National Strategy for HIV and Sexual Health was published in June 2001 followed by a comprehensive action plan for national and local implementation. As part of the implementation plan, a training mapping exercise was undertaken and recommendations were made to implement a training action plan. The following recommended quality standards will further support these strategic aims, and will enable the implementation of the Public Health White Paper 'Choosing Health' (2004) which identified training and workforce capacity issues as integral to the Sexual Health agenda.
