CIMSPA’s new strategy to deliver sector recognition

CIMSPA (Chartered Institute for the Management of Sport and Physical Activity) has published its new strategy, which aims to deliver the “recognition that the physical activity sector workforce needs and deserves”.

Titled Releasing the Power of our Profession, the strategy sets out CIMSPA’s commitment to six system interventions. These are: • Local skills plans • National Training Academy • Careers support • Business support hub • Workforce governance

• UK sport and physical activity workforce skills observatory

“The strategy outlines a plan to achieve a vision where professional recognition is not a static milestone,” CIMSPA says.

“It ensures that, as a profession, we can maximise our agility to embrace emerging trends. We also want to be at the cutting edge of what society needs us to be, in order to scale up the incredibly valuable contribution that we make to the health and wellbeing of the nation through prevention of and support for recovery from long-term conditions.”
