For CIMSPA fitness & active-health professionals
Would you recognise a concussion on your gym floor — and know exactly what to do next?
Concussion Care Has Changed is a free, ~1-hour interactive awareness course built for the front line of active health: recognise the signs, know the red flags, and refer with confidence.
Start the free courseWhy it matters
Fitness and active-health professionals are often the first to see a head knock — during training, in a class, on the floor. The guidance has moved on from “rest in a dark room”: concussion is now an exercise-prescription condition, but the first job on the floor is unchanged — recognise and refer safely.
This course gives you a clear recognise-&-refer workflow and the plain-English boundaries of your role — no clinical scope creep, just the confident first response.
