SAAH – South African Academy of Health

We are an innovative institution that was founded to answer the needs for professionally recognised training

Our training is aimed specifically at healthcare institutions such as hospitals, step down facilities, frail care centres, clinics, hospices & old age homes.

Due to the fact that existing training of Health Care Workers was mainly community based and not institutionally based at all, South African Academy of Health took the initiative to create a task team in order to address this specific need.

The SAAH Course

"This was the best choice ever studying at South African Academy of Health. During my course professionalism was the order of the day."

" It has been a fun and challenging journey but was worth all my time and energy, because I am now a qualified PHCA and now have new opportunities because of the skills I gained at SAAH."

"I came to do the course without any knowledge of medicine, in the beginning I found that the course was very difficult and I wanted to quit, but the SAAH team spoke to me and encouraged me to continue."

"It has been a life changing endeavor which I will cherish my entire LIFE and hold my memories there. They will always be DEAR to my Heart. Thank you SAAH"

"I am very proud of SAAH because it is a short course that is on a very high level. My advise to you, come to SAAH to complete the course and improve your life!"
