Our Story

Meet Health Academy Co-Founders Euan and Neil

Neil Ramdhun from Health Academy

Euan Naismith from Health Academy

Euan Naismith

Head of Learning & Development

Euan and Neil found a common passion in their love of travel to remote parts of the world. They took this one step further by combining their passion with their careers. As experienced nurses working in travel health and public health Euan & Neil became frustrated with the poor quality e-learning available for health professionals. After leading the clinical education department of one of the UK’s largest nurse and pharmacist clinic networks, they channelled their experience to create Health Academy. They wanted to create a new, fun place for learning with a variety of learning options to suit the goals of the individual practitioner.
