Service Description

The Level 4 Award in Understanding Internal Quality Assurance is designed for individuals who want to develop a solid grounding in the principles and practices of IQA, without carrying out quality assurance activities as part of the qualification. This knowledge-based award is ideal for assessors, tutors, centre staff, and anyone preparing to progress into a quality role. You’ll explore the purpose of IQA, the responsibilities involved, and how internal quality assurance supports fair, consistent, and reliable assessment decisions across vocational programmes. The aim of this qualification is to train learners to a professionally competent level, enabling them to plan, deliver, and supervise safe and effective exercise sessions, while supporting members with their health and fitness goals. You’ll develop a strong understanding of anatomy and physiology, principles of training, exercise technique, and safe gym operations — all grounded in industry best practice. Throughout the programme, you’ll also learn how to engage, motivate, and support a diverse range of clients, ensuring you are fully prepared for the realities of working on the gym floor. Delivered through a blend of online study, tutor-mentor support, and optional practical workshops, this qualification offers the flexibility to learn around your lifestyle while still gaining the hands-on skills employers expect.
