Online resources for exercise referral award
POSTED 05 Oct 2011 . BY Pete Hayman
Ofqual-approved accreditation body Active IQ has announced the launch of new eLearning and online resources in support of its Level 3 Certificate in Exercise Referral.

The award is designed for advanced instructors and personal trainers looking to work with special populations in areas such as cardiovascular, respiratory and mental health issues.

New resources unveiled by Active IQ will offer greater support to learners working to build on existing Level 2 and 3 skills and provide a greater understanding of medical conditions.

Active IQ research and development director Julian Berriman said: "The Level 3 Certificate in Exercise Referral is a very modern qualification, both in terms of content and learning methods, and is now a pre-requisite for Level 4 entry.

"While the course content reflects contemporary industry initiatives towards greater integration with the health sector, the supporting eLearning and online resources demonstrate Active IQ's commitment to innovative health and fitness qualifications."
