BY Tom Walker
Winners of this year's Active Training Awards have been revealed at a gala event in Birmingham.
Organised by ukactive and the Chartered Institute for the Management of Sport and Physical Activity (CIMSPA), the Active Training Awards recognise employers and training providers in the physical activity sector for their workforce development.
This year's awards saw eight winners selected from a broader spectrum of employers than ever before – from traditional fitness markets to community operations and public health programmes.
Among the winners were Future Fit Training, which picked up the award for 'best innovation' for its Pro Zone online training platform, which allows fitness professionals to build their own skills training programme.
Everyone Active picked up the prestigious 'employer of the year' award, while London-based Jubilee Hall Trust was named 'small employer of the year'.
“As service quality and innovation rises year on year in our sector, this year’s award winners continue to raise the bar with their work," said Tara Dillon, CIMSPA chief executive.
"I’d like to congratulate all of our award winners for their stellar achievement in delivering great learning and development opportunities across the sport and physical activity sector.
“I hope others can take inspiration from the successful programmes and best practice demonstrated by these award winners, and look to build similar innovation and excellence into their own services across our communities.”
