Benefits Of EHFA Accreditation - LAPE - Simona Pajauiene

Benefits Of EHFA Accreditation - FIAF - Mimi Adami

FIAF is recognized by Italian ministries and regional governments as a provider of vocational education and training in exercise and fitness. FIAF has been awarded accreditations at EQF Levels 3 and 4 for various fitness instructor certifications and personal training. The benefits of accreditation include unifying fitness standards across Europe, facilitating evaluation of professionals, and ensuring safety for exercise participants. However, in Italy there is little regulation of the fitness industry and many instructors seek certificates without proper knowledge or evaluation. Accreditation can also be time consuming and costly, requiring both practical and theoretical evaluation and study.

Setting the Scene - EHFA - Herman Rutgers

EHFA has evolved from a small organization in 2001 to a larger organization with 18 member associations from 24 countries by 2010. EHFA developed fitness industry standards and an accreditation system for training providers called EREPS. EHFA secured EU funding for several projects related to standards, vocational education and training, and promoting physical activity. By 2010, EHFA had expanded its operations and staff based in Brussels to represent the fitness industry on EU policy issues like health, employment, and education.

The QCF

The Qualifications and Credit Framework (QCF) replaces the National Qualifications Framework in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. The QCF structures units of learning by credit, where each credit represents 10 hours of learning. Learners can accumulate credits from different providers and qualifications to build toward other qualifications over time. This flexibility benefits both learners and awarding organizations.
