Workshops

​

Applied αquatic workshops represent a very valuable tool for continuing education and for the skill development of any of the Aquatic Professionals who take their work seriously. Most of those who benefit from workshops or seminars are  already qualified aquatic professionals such as aquatic trainers and coaches, or aquatic therapists. Workshops offer new knowledge on advances at a specific aquatic area. The past few years there's a great demand on altrenative aquatic modes, that are creating their own sequence of courses.

Some of these workshops may offer “Letters of Attendance” or Certifications or lead to a Practitioner's Permit. A single workshop cannot “manufacture” a Professional or substitute for the knowledge gained in an academic institution for disciplines such as, exercise sciences, physical therapy, work therapy,  or other health related professional vocations to which clients trust their health.

There are aquatic skills however, that are worldwide also taught out of academic institutions, and have produced very expert and qualifiied professionals,  such as swimming teaching and coaching, aquatic exercise, water safety and lifesaving and alternative aquatic modalities. Their eligibility to work in health related settings is still questionable, and is many times dependent on state and national laws that determine if higher education qualifications or supervision are necessary.  

AHF will be inviting and collaborating with worldwide acknowledged individuals and aquatic foundations that offer aquatic training on practical skill aquisition.
