The official launch date of the European Register of Exercise Professionals (EREPs) has been announced.

A special ceremony will be held at the Nike Academy in the Netherlands and will coincide with the North European Fitness Forum run by the EHFA and EREPs on 7-8 May.

Cliff Collins, REPs registrar, who will be overseeing the introduction of the European Register, said: “This will be a massive milestone for the future of the fitness industry both in Europe and the UK and one which will, I’m sure, be just the start of increased Europe-wide activity.

“We have ambitious plans to see EREPS develop across most of Europe in the next five years.”
