The recent letter from Antonio Tajani, the President of the European Parliament, has added weight and encouragement for EuropeActive to continue along its pathway to develop the systems and processes to make sure that fitness professionals have the future skills and qualifications to support the growth of the sector.
20th to 22nd March 2017, representatives of the active leisure sector, EuropeActive and EC-OE hold a very fruitful and informative meeting in Mijoux, France. The SIQAF task force invited for the 3rd meeting experts on referencing national qualifications to the Swiss National Qualification Framework. The expert consultations where a great opportunity to gain first hand experiences on how to reference qualifications to a NQF. In addition, the Swiss consistency examiner for the NQF gave his approach and perspective on the process.
This week, the European Qualification framework (EQF) project has taken some big steps towards an International Sector Qualification Framework for Active Leisure. On Wednesday 16 November, the SIQAF consortium consisting of representatives from the Outdoor (EC-OE) and the fitness sector (EuropeActive) met for the second task force meeting in Athens.
