POSITION STATEMENT Definition of the Goals & Objectives There are many goals and objectives that someone in the health and fitness world can try to accomplish.  I have found that many of those goals are based around the same basic ideas.  One of the basic ideas that professionals to do is to create programs to assist groups and individuals.  The other basic concept for goals in the health promotion field can be found right in the title, promoting health and try to help people to improve and manage a healthy lifestyle. Methods/Strategies to which Goals and Objectives There are many different methods and strategies that can be taken to achieve these simple goals. One could work with other agencies to coordinate health promotion programs, advocate and lobby for hp causes, work alongside schools and community groups to identify health issues and solutions, manage health promotion projects, establish networks in the comm., and develop promo material for publication of health behaviors (Hodge).  Skills & Competencies Required If one is majoring with a degree in a health promotions field, they will be in the College of Liberal Arts.  There are some core requirements that are distinguished by the college as well as courses that are required for the focused major.  Some of the courses that are required for the focused major are found on the Health and Kinesiology Advising website.  In order to obtain a degree one must also get 126 credit hours and do a 500 hours, or more, internship (Heath and Kinesiology Advisting). Effectiveness of Health & Fitness Programs/Interventions The health and fitness field is important because from its success, it allows for the next generation to appreciate and take their health seriously.  It is very important to maintain a healthy lifestyle because a sedentary lifestyle is a segway to being overweight and that leads to many medical problems.  Having the education and good practice of a healthy lifestyle can keep one alive for longer and maybe even save some money on medical costs.  The Role of the Health/Fitness Professional The role of a Health/Fitness Professional is to improve physical health of people through education, motivation, and maintenance of the healthy lifestyle.
