Education & Training
NAFS Health aims to raise awareness about mental health and its associated issues.
Part of our mission is to provide high quality training, supervision and coaching to various professional groups, staff and members of the public.
With this aim in mind we established a virtual NAFS Academy to oversee the development of courses and training materials including these related to mandatory training within organisations or hospitals.
We collaborate with a panel of experts in the field of mental health and psychological wellbeing as well as in medicine and various other disciplines to develop high quality training materials and courses.
Our panel of experts in the field of mental health consists of:
- Consultant adult psychiatrists
- Child & adolescent psychiatrists
- Clinical psychologists
- Therapists and Counsellors
We also collaborate with experts in other disciplines of medicine, management and business as part of our advisory training panel.
