This qualification is divided into two units: the knowledge unit followed by the skills unit (practical skills learned with the tutor that you then apply to actual class teaching with active older adult students). For the first unit, e-learning resources will be available for recognised centres to use so that learners can access consistent information and test their knowledge before completing worksheets for centre assessors’ Summative Assessment – e-learning extract coming soon.

As the focus will be on general Mindbody Wellness principles, the prerequisite is to have a group exercise fitness qualification, such as yoga, Pilates, Tai Chi, etc.  The aim will be to motivate already active  older adults to stay active so that the next few decades will be healthy and joyful.
