SportMed Academy
The SportMed Academy offers courses on themes such as physical testing, training and coaching, both lifestyle-oriented and performance-oriented. The emphasis of the courses offered is mainly on target group-related physical coaching based on the SportMed vision and the SportMed method. During the training, on the one hand the methodologies and on the other hand the tools that SportMed has developed and can support the physical trainer or coach in guiding his consumers, are explained in detail. In addition to substantive courses, the SportMed Academy also offers conceptual courses.
SportMed Academy eCampus
Since 2018, the SportMed Academy has started organizing courses and training via our digital learning platform, the 'SportMed Academy eCampus'. In this way we were able to remove many barriers that often stand in the way of participation in a training course, such as travel - and the associated traffic problems, loss of time and costs. The number of - mainly practice-related - days on which a participant still has to be physically present is very limited and is organized as regionally as possible. In this way, SportMed also contributes to the fight against global warming.
Thanks to the digital learning platform, a participant can schedule his own moments to go through the course, carry out the assignments, and can (largely) determine the pace of the learning process, practice extra, ... .
In short, the advantages in many cases certainly outweigh the disadvantages (In the latter we calculate the mutual contact with the fellow participants and the contact with the teacher that is partly lost, which unfortunately will dilute the personal 'touch'. This, however, is partly solved via social media communication, ... .) and the future will show where we may have to evolve towards a 'compromise' in the training forms.
One thing is certain, 'blended learning' will become more and more the rule in the future and SportMed is once again fulfilling the pioneering role with the SportMed Academy eCampus.
