Fitness Australia, CEO, Bill Moore, is excited to be providing such a diversity of initiatives designed to empower and support the industry and Members.

“We’re really excited to be launching these initiatives,” said Bill.

“No matter what your role in the industry, there’s something for you in this suite of initiatives, and that’s what we’ll be talking about at this year’s Fitness Show.

“Our 2017 Awards program will seek to recognise the great work of individuals and programs from across Australia, while the Quality Accreditation Program will raise the bar in terms of quality across the whole industry. In other exciting news we have a new, innovative app, which will make it easier for clients to find registered exercise professionals – it’s all very exciting.
