The National STD Curriculum (http://std.uw.edu) is a free, up-to-date website for novice to expert clinicians to learn about the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of STDs and STIs. The website features lessons, interactive question bank topics, a monthly podcast, and an individualized progress tracker.
