The BCRPA is a member of the National Fitness Leadership Alliance (NFLA), a nationwide group of Provincial/Territorial government-affiliated fitness agencies.

What We Do

• work collaboratively to develop and distribute resources for exercise professionals in Canada;
• are a national and international advocate for exercise professionals;
• identify and address issues of common concern.

Our role as a register

The NFLA is recognized by the International Confederation of Registers for Exercise Professionals 

ICREPs members operate in 4 continents, over seven countries, and collectively register over 60,000 individual exercise professionals. ICREPs has also produced a global matrix that maps each ICREPs member’s registration levels against the others, which provides a clear pathway for exercise professionals considering moving countries.

Our connection to ICREPs furthers our goals by providing international portability and recognition for Canadian exercise professionals and by allowing us to share best practices and information with international partners.

Transferring Your Registration:
Here are the Alliance members to contact if you need to transfer your BCRPA registration to another province:

Your BCRPA registration is also recognized outside of Canada. For instance, it will allow you to work in the U.S. and at many vacation resorts around the world.
