H.A.F.A.A is an Association that was started by Fitness Professionals for Fitness Professionals and is invested in making the industry a better place for the people working in it. We aim to be an Industry Body that provides value for Trainers and Instructors along with their Fitness Registration, by offering services and benefits that we believe they will utilise, such as Industry discounts, Masterclasses, Union information and advice and more.

 

Why Join Us?

​

1. Professional National Industry Registration & Certificate.

​

2. NO CEC requirement means that we recognise all relevant training and education a person has done and we list these on your registration certificate and online profile, by date. This way, your registration reflects exactly what courses and up-skilling you have completed, rather than just relying on "points".​

​

10. Advocacy - HAFAA spends considerable time advocating for the creation, change or improvement of policies and codes that benefit workers in the fitness industry. We have successfully attended commission hearings, blocked changes the to Fitness Award that would have been detrimental to workers, lodged Fair Work FOI requests and seen the implementation of new WHS standards and codes of practice. 

​

11. Giving back - we donate a minimum of 10% to charity. Since launching H.A.F.A.A, we have been able to raise thousands of dollars for various Charities across Australia, supporting organisations for Medical Research, Mental Health, Human Rights and more. In March/April 2020, we donated 100% of costs to Bushfire Relief and in the coming months, we look forward to launching a new feature which will allow FitPros to "choose their cause" when registering.​
