About Us

One of Eight Federally Funded Regional AETCs

The Southeast AIDS Education and Training Center (SE AETC) is one of eight federally funded regional AETCs, serving Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee—home to over 20% of the U.S. population and nearly a quarter of People with HIV. Headquartered at Vanderbilt University Medical Center since 2015, SE AETC collaborates with partners across the Southeast to expand and strengthen the HIV clinical workforce.

Through a wide range of educational offerings—including in-person workshops, live virtual training, asynchronous online learning, and individualized coaching—we empower clinicians at all levels to deliver high-quality, equitable HIV care. Our programs address urgent regional challenges: higher-than-average new diagnoses, limited rural access to care, and deep disparities in health outcomes. Together, we’re advancing care, reducing transmission, and helping the South close the gap in HIV prevention and treatment.
