Since 2006, the Clinical Training Center for Sexual and Reproductive Health (CTC-SRH) has developed and delivered high-quality, evidence-based clinical training and shared skill development resources to Title X service providers. We have been funded by the Office of Population Affairs at the Department of Health and Human Services since inception. Read more.

Mission

For over 18 years, our mission has remained to offer the best clinical training to the nation’s Title X workforce. We do this by offering clinically relevant and accessible training such as live and on-demand webinars, e-learning, and onsite and virtual skills training. Many of our trainings are eligible for continuing education credits (CEs). 

Community Building

We host the National Reproductive Health Conference, the nation’s only annual conference for Title X clinicians, which is also open to non-Title X sexual and reproductive health providers. Next year’s conference will be entirely virtual and held from August 6th - 8th, 2025. We look forward to connecting with sexual and reproductive health clinicians from across the nation!

Implementing Quality Family Planning: Training Toolkits for Staff and Prescribers

NOTE: The Quality Family Planning (QFP) guidelines were updated in 2024. This page may reference the 2014 version of the QFP. We are in the process of reviewing and updating materials to align with the new 2024 guidelines. For the most accurate information, please refer to the updated QFP.

Implementing Quality Family Planning, or IQFP, provides clinic staff with the knowledge and skills they need to engage with family planning clients, apply client-centered care, and share evidence-based information on a wide range of contraceptive methods.

The IQFP Toolkits are comprehensive curricula to be used by facilitators familiar with the QFP guidelines to train clinical staff or prescribers.

IQFP Curriculum (Standard) is for experienced staff or clinicians to train non-prescribing staff, including registered nurses and health educators. The IQFP Curriculum consists of two modules: (1) Contraception Overview and (2) Client-Centered Counseling in the Family Planning Setting

IQFP-RX Curriculum (IQFP For Prescribers) is for experienced clinicians to train other clinicians and includes additional in-depth information on prescribing and management. The IQFP-RX Curriculum consists of three modules: (1) Contraception Overview (2) Client-Centered Counseling in the Family Planning Setting (3) Advanced Contraception

The Toolkit Tour below gives an introduction to the Implementing Quality Family Planning (IQFP) Curriculum, a walkthrough of the toolkits, and information on how to customize your training using the toolkits.
