Aligned to Study Active’s
approach to blended learning
is their own constant wish to
learn from its students and
the continual development
within the industry, as they
pride themselves on ensuring
quality standards are always
maintained across the
organisation.
But what does this mean?
“Quality standards is all about
making sure qualifications
are fit for industry and are
robust enough to maintain
their status as qualifications
on the regulated qualifications
framework. We work very
hard to ensure that what
we are offering satisfies the
requirement of a regulated
qualification and also remains
fit for purpose in the industry.
“
The real value to
blended learning
is the actual
face-to-face
component.”
“How we do this is, first of all,
by liaising with our awarding
organisation (Active IQ)
who have been incredibly
supportive to us, providing
excellent support with their
quality assurance team
working with us to ensure
what we are delivering meets
the requirements of the
qualification. Our external
verifier has been instrumental in
our success because he helps
us to develop what we are
today,” James adds.
“Active IQ understands we are
very much about a blended
approach where there’s lots of
innovation and different types of
learning and different mediums.”
Study Active’s yearn to learn
evidently runs deep, even after
the qualification for the student
has ended, with the door
opening on the next stage of
development.
“All of our staff, as well as being
tutors, are also practising
exercise professionals. This
helps to tell us what the
industry is demanding. At the
end of the course we give all
our students a road map. We
have further contact with them
advising them what their next
steps are. One of them is now
to join REPs, but we also look
at getting them interviews at
different gyms, giving them
careers advice, and really
getting them on their journey
forwards.
“The end of their journey is more
than a piece of paper. They have
a robust learning experience,
have achieved a qualification
and have information for their
next steps, and that is why we
see so many of our students go
on to have such successful
careers in the fitness industry.”
