There is still time for you to register your class for this special event featuring 2 NAF alumni. Attending live will enable students and your academy to gain credit for a Career Awareness activity (guest speaker). This event is in partnership with Rubin Webinars for College and Career Readiness.

Students will have the opportunity to learn about exciting career opportunities in hospitality and discover the success behind the world’s largest travel company. Register for the webinar.
NAF is redesigning its courses and creating new units on AI, oral health, and more! Share your feedback on our curriculum survey and tell us how you’re currently using NAF courses and what you would like to see in our redesign. Please complete it by November 12th for the chance to win $50 gift cards.
We are making some improvements to our NAF-created courses that will bring even more value to the NAF network. This past summer, we began requiring users to log-in via ASH for all NAF courses. This update will allow us to better understand who’s accessing our courses, which will enable us to update our content more frequently and tailor these courses to better match the needs of our academies and educators.
By NAF Next 2025, NAF will be rolling out new updates to Global Health, Anatomy & Physiology 1 & 2 (including a new oral health unit), and a complete refresh of Principles of Hospitality & Tourism courses.
If you would like to access and download NAF-created courses, you will need to sign into your free ASH account (available for all NAF academies and their staff). See this guide on setting up your account.
Our work-based learning and advisory board resources and curriculum projects (including NAF Expeditions and Celebrating Careers & Diversity) will remain accessible for those without an ASH account and can be shared more broadly.
