Candidates must be in possession of a CYQ Level 2 Certificate in Fitness Instructing qualification, or other qualification recognised by the National Qualifications Framework (NQF). (see www.accreditedqualifications.org.uk) Candidates holding non NQF certificates may be considered for this qualification. However, training providers must apply APA or APL as appropriate to ensure that the requirements of the prerequisites are met. All evidence of APA and APL must be available to the CYQ external verifier upon request. NB: It is the responsibility of the training provider to ensure that all candidates meet the prerequisites prior to assessment of this qualification. CYQ is unable to certificate unless the prerequisites are met. It is recommended that centres offering this qualification should have access to an appropriate practical facility and that all courses leading to the certificate should be run with a practical bias. |
