Currently, only Fertility Awareness Educators (FAEs) who have graduated from one of the teacher training programs we recognize (below), can be accredited by AFAP. These programs have high standards, comprehensive curricula, do not espouse any particular religious tenets, are informed by reproductive justice, and support full spectrum reproductive health care delivered in a culturally sensitive and identity-affirming context. These programs require a minimum of 2 years to obtain a certification as an educator in fertility awareness.
These recognized teacher training programs are:
- Justisse College (English language)
- The Well (formerly Grace of the Moon)(English language)
- Natural Fertility Training And Certification (Hebrew language)
- Eden Fertilité (French language)
AFAP is interested in expanding the number of programs we recognize and with whom we work. Administrators of teacher training programs that wish to be considered are invited to get in touch with us. Before doing so, please read very carefully through the Core Competencies document to ascertain whether your program is aligned with both the curriculum and the principles we have outlined.
And please join AFAP as a supporter! Doing so will give you an opportunity not just to meet, but to collaborate with professionals in the field from a variety of educational backgrounds as we work to strengthen the field of secular Fertility Awareness for our members and those we serve.
