About the Beat It Refresher program
This program is for exercise professionals who have previously completed the Beat It Trainer program. By completing this course, trainers will be able to renew their Beat It Trainer certification for another 2-year period.
As with the Beat It Trainer course, the Beat It Refresher course is an evidence-based program for Exercise Physiologists, Exercise Scientists and other Exercise Professionals. It is designed to review and revise the skills and knowledge required to deliver safe and effective group-based physical activity and lifestyle programs. These programs are for people with or at risk of diabetes and other lifestyle-related chronic diseases.
The Beat It Refresher course is developed by Accredited Exercise Physiologists, Accredited Practising Dietitians and Credentialled Diabetes Educators.
The new Beat It Refresher course (updated in March 2020) has been accredited for 7.5 CPD points by ESSA and 5 CEC’s by AUSactive (formally Fitness Australia).
