Study Active signs UK partnership deal with MedFit Education

Study Active has signed an exclusive UK partnership with MedFit Education Foundation, the US-based provider of medical fitness education. As a result of the collaboration, Study Active – a fitness training and qualifications provider – will offer specialised training designed to equip fitness professionals with the skills needed to work confidently and competently with clients affected by chronic disease, medical conditions and age-related challenges.

MedFit Education – through its online learning platform, MedFit Classroom – offers one of the world’s largest libraries of medical fitness specialisation courses, covering more than 20 in-demand areas. The MedFit Classroom also includes short online courses for skill enhancement, professional webinars presented by leading educators and specialisations that support prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation via exercise.

Julian Berriman, Director of Education at Study Active, says the partnership means that UK fitness professionals will now have direct access to MedFit’s wealth of knowledge.

“As the global population ages, the demand for fitness professionals who can safely support individuals with conditions continues to rise,” he said.
