CoverMe and FitIQ to deliver career-ready fitness professionals

Workforce operating system CoverMe Fitness and education provider, FitIQ Education, have partnered to address the ongoing disconnect between certification and work-ready fitness professionals. By supporting instructors earlier in their career journey and guiding them as they enter the industry, the collaboration will help to provide a pipeline of confident and connected fitness professionals ready for the workplace.

Lou Crossland, chief commercial officer, CoverMe, says: “This partnership ensures learners enter the industry ready to thrive. With CoverMe embedded into the learning journey, we’re opening pathways to real job opportunities while providing operators with work-ready instructors.”

FitIQ Education delivers UK-regulated qualifications across the UK and UAE. Learners will be introduced to CoverMe Fitness during their training through an academy-style app that provides real-world insight into how the industry operates, how to build networks and position themselves professionally. At the end of their learning pathway, FitIQ courses will include a dedicated CoverMe module designed to connect graduates directly to operators, employment and freelance roles, the gig economy and flexible work opportunities.
