EuropeActive has launched a survey to make sure the correct education and training is being given to fitness professionals.
European employers working in the fitness sector are being invited to fill in the 10-question survey to help the association understand what they expect from fitness trainers employed in clubs, at a time when the industry is changing with new concepts and advancements in digital technology.
Some of the areas covered in the questionnaire include the difficulty in finding and recruiting fitness trainers; what employers look for when recruiting; should instructors have additional education or training when working with certain populations, such as overweight clients or older adults; should there be a European standard for certifying personal trainers.
The European health and fitness sector serves more than 52.4million members, employs 650,000 people, and consists of 51,200 facilities.
The survey, which closes on Wednesday 1 March, is available at:
