Advanced Certificate in Fitness in Special Populations

This one-year advanced certificate programme builds on a higher certificate. 

You are able to design, manage and monitor exercise programmes for each special population group (pregnancy, children, youth and, older adults) who want to enhance their health and improve their fitness. 

Additionally, because lifestyle diseases are increasing in their prevalence across all spectra of the population, you will also learn about the chronic diseases of lifestyle so that you can assist clients in reducing their disease risk, promote their health and enhance their fitness, while working within your professional scope of practice. 

In the context of special populations, once qualified, you are able to screen, assess and fitness test special population groups. You will also be able to implement safe and effective exercise programmes for special population groups. 

Additionally, you will be able to provide advice and support in terms of health, lifestyle and exercise management to special population groups.
