"Reproductive Health Training for Primary Providers: A SourceBook for Curriculum Development" is an 8-module series intended to help trainers integrate reproductive health-related content into training curricula. The modules utilize a performance-based model aimed at imparting the knowledge, skills, and support that clinic-based providers need to meet performance standards and improve the quality of care offered to clients. Training objectives are linked to actual job responsibilities and conditions at the service delivery site and build incrementally on existing knowledge and skills. Although the 8 modules focus on specific topics (counseling clients for family planning/reproductive health services, educating clients about family planning/reproductive health, providing family planning services, providing basic maternal and newborn care services, providing postabortion care services, providing selected reproductive health services, working in collaboration with other reproductive health and community-based workers, and organizing and managing a family planning/reproductive health clinic for maximizing access to and quality of care), related reproductive health information is woven throughout the text. This guide summarizes the content of each module, illustrates how the components in each module fit together, and presents a series of scenarios that demonstrate uses of the SourceBook with a variety of potential users.
