The mission of the Pacific AIDS Education and Training Center (Pacific AETC) is to provide health care professionals with the knowledge and skills necessary to care for HIV-infected patients and to increase the numbers of trained health care professionals working with HIV-infected patients in the community.

The Pacific AETC is funded by the federal Ryan White CARE Act to provide education and training to health care providers on the front line of HIV clinical care in California, Arizona, Nevada, and Hawaii. It is one of 15 regional AETCs that cover all 50 states, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. Headquartered at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), the Pacific AETC utilizes a decentralized training model, with multidisciplinary faculty trainers at 17 performance sites.
