EHFA: "Why is it important to have a trade body for the European fitness industry and what do you feel are the priorities for EHFA over the next three years?"

Julian Berriman: "The trade body sets the standards for the industry and in so doing informs, supports and shapes that industry. Priorities:
• Promoting best practice in fitness instruction training
• Producing qualifications that are fit for purpose and best serve the needs of employers
• Disseminating key messages e.g. ‘More people, more active, more often’
• Seeking to address challenges facing the industry e.g. dealing with rising levels of inactivity and obesity
• Initiating and driving research that underpins the development of the health and fitness sector
• Providing a forum for members from the public and private sectors (operators, training providers, national associations) to associate and debate".
