FREE 6-week, evidence-based online training course for parents and carers – commencing 12th November 2019

Getting On With It: Training for parents/caregivers supporting someone with diagnosed or suspected Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD)

NOFASD Australia, in conjunction with Associate Professor Anita Gibbs (PhD) from the University of Otago, are providing training for parents and caregivers supporting individuals with diagnosed or suspected Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD). Anita is an adoptive parent, social worker, and university academic. She has both lived experience and research knowledge of FASD.

This 6-week, evidence-based training course will be facilitated online from 6 pm to 7.30 pm AEST, commencing on Tuesday 12th November and concluding on Tuesday 17th December 2019. Participants are required to commit to all 6 sessions in order to get full value from the training. A certificate of completion will be sent at the conclusion of the course.

This is a no blame, no shame course run by professionally qualified parents who have experience of FASD.

  1. Hi, will the training also be available to follow after the online session? Due to the time difference between Australia and South Africa following it online would be difficult. I would love to do the training and still receive my certificate.

    1. Hi Denise

      Thank you for making contact. Unfortunately, the online training support group will be a closed group and therefore participants will need to attend the group at the allotted time. For this reason, the group will only be available to people residing in Australia.

      Please contact us via our email address at admin@nofasd.org.au if we can offer support in any other way. Many thanks Sophie.

    1. Hi Dave,

      Unfortunately at this stage the course is only available to people currently residing in Australia. Thank you very much for your interest.

      1. You have stated that it is is available in New Zealand…
        Now your telling Dave it’s not…. Is itOr not?

        I would also like to participate please

        1. Hi Gina,
          It is too late to enrol in this course, but we are compiling a list of people who are interested in future courses. If you would like to be added to this list please email admin@nofasd.org.au with your contact details and which state of Australia you live in.
          Thanks for your interest.

  2. This would be a awesome program for all kinship and foster Carer’s. Even if at later date it was run during a day time period so kinship carers could participate easily as some may be preparing meals. At the night times.

    1. Hi Wendi,

      Thank you for your feedback. It is not possible to find a time which suits everyone, as carers are such busy people! We are always talking about how we can best support families and will certainly keep your comments in mind if we are able to offer this again in future.
