ACTIVE IQ has announced the launch of its latest reformed qualifications, structured to provide learners with targeted skills and knowledge that meet both current industry standards and anticipated future needs.
Available to learners from August 2025, the reform launch includes the rollout of 11 updated qualifications designed to align with the changing needs of employers and learners, covering essential areas within the sector.
This includes working with ageing clients, expanding learners’ knowledge on the physiological and biomechanical changes associated with ageing, and antenatal/postnatal fitness, enabling learners to identify and manage risks specific to these clients, alongside a number of other areas of focus.
The qualifications come off the back of Active IQ’s Skills Gap Report finding that 32 per cent of fitness professionals feel they don’t have access to the resources and tools necessary to customise training programmes for different areas of diversity, and look to begin plugging this gap.
In an effort to streamline qualifications, Active IQ has also simplified the choices available to both employers and learners to establish a clear and recognised pathway to employment, addressing consumer confusion in the marketplace where the number of qualifications available can complicate decision-making unnecessarily.
