Fertility Awareness Educator Training
Fertility Awareness Educator Training
Train with Natural Fertility New Zealand
We are a registered charity that trains Fertility Educators to teach Fertility Awareness to women, couples, health professionals and in schools.
We accredit, audit and support our educators to ensure they are equipped to assist New Zealanders with choosing and using the best natural family planning method for them; whether that is to conceive, to avoid conception, or for general fertility awareness.
If you are passionate about Natural Fertility and have a background in health you can apply to become an educator. The next Certificate in Fertility and Reproductive Health starts in February 2027. Download the programme guide for all the details, and apply now to register your expression of interest (only 12 places available).
