For over 10 years, Saskatchewan has had the highest annual rate of new HIV and Hepatitis C (Hep C) diagnoses in the country (Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC), 2023). Additionally, the province now has one of the fastest growing rates of syphilis infections in Canada (PHAC, 2023). This has resulted in an urgent need to educate healthcare providers across the province how to recognize, test, treat, and manage these sexually transmitted and blood borne infections (STBBI) in their clinics.  

In response, the STBBI Treatment Education Program for Saskatchewan (STEPS) was created to provide free, accessible, and accredited continuing medical education through the STBBI Virtual Classroom.  

Since the conception of STEPS, the program has grown to offer additional services to support new prescribers. 

STEPS is possible from an unrestricted educational grant from the Saskatchewan Ministry of Health.
