AlessandroBiascioli/Shutterstock.com Q Chris: Incredibly simple. I was dreading it because I’ve had to fill out a lot of paperwork to get back to Australia. But because I had a REPs UK membership, I just had to fill out one form on Fitness Australia’s website and upload my UK L3 PT certificates. Oh, and I had to do a one-day Australian first aid course – almost identical to the standard UK one except there’s a section on dealing with venomous creature bites and stings! “ 20 FM www.exerciseregister.org Keep up your membership. I cannot stress how easy it makes the transition.”
