Training needs assessment of those involved in the promotion of physical activity with older people (50+)

NHS HS commissioned research to support the implementation of the national physical activity strategy, including the training needs assessment of those involved in the promotion of physical activity with older people (50+).

The aim of the research was to identify the current and emerging needs of the Health in Later Life workforce promoting physical activity as well as identifying existing ways in which these needs are being met. The study considered both formal, accredited training and informal learning and awareness raising opportunities, and we have used the term “training” in this report to cover the broad spectrum of learning opportunities.
