Over five carefully curated sessions, led by industry experts, we will cover the latest trends, best practices and innovative strategies related to the application of exercise physiology and personal training strategies across age, sport and clinical conditions.
The aim of this workshop is to introduce and consolidate the principles of ethical good conduct for sport and exercise scientists. In doing so, through a variety of interactive learning experiences, it draws upon aspects of professional ethics as experienced by sport and exercise science practitioners. It also situates the BASES Code of Conduct in a set of applied (hypothetical) contexts. Underpinned implicitly by theoretical frameworks, it is intended for those sport and exercise scientists seeking accreditation through BASES.
Learning outcomes of the workshop:
• Understand the basis for ethical good conduct amongst sport and exercise professionals
• Recognise and apply the BASES Code of Conduct to inform good practice
• Appreciate some of the ethical sensitivities in professional practice around such themes as voluntary informed consent, risk and harm, confidentiality and anonymity, guilty knowledge and ‘whistle-blowing’
The prevalence of inadequate sleep has increased dramatically in recent decades, and this has significant implications for both health and performance. This webinar will discuss the recent research regarding the impact of sleep loss in the development of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and dementia. In addition, the influence of sleep loss on cognitive and physical performance will be discussed, along with the implications of this for exercise performance and athletes. The intersection between the health benefits of sleep and exercise will also be explored, including how exercise can impact sleep quality. Finally, an overview of practical strategies for improving sleep habits will be reviewed.
This is part of a two-part series.
Exercise Management of Whiplash Associated Disorders Webinar – Part 1 – Tuesday, 28 May 2024
Exercise Management of Whiplash Associated Disorders Webinar – Part 2 – Tuesday, 18 June 2024
Part one of this two-part series will cover important theoretical concepts to help understand the heterogeneity of presentations in people who have sustained a whiplash injury. It will cover mechanisms and pathophysiology, anatomical considerations, biopsychosocial consequences of the injury and how to identify and monitor when certain features might be present in your patient.
Part two of this two-part series will discuss implications for exercise prescription and management of whiplash associated disorders.

Motivational Interviewing is a counselling method used by a broad range of helping professionals to support client change and growth. MI has a rich and growing evidence base in sport and exercise/clinical exercise and physical activity.
Helping us learn to let go of the exhausting process of trying to fix our clients’ problems, MI instead helps us skilfully guide them to explore what they have and need. Ultimately, MI teaches us how to be with our clients in a way that supports them as they talk themselves into meaningful and sustainable solutions.
This MI Basics workshop will introduce you to the key concepts and provide an opportunity to practice some key skills to take with you and use immediately.
This workshop aims to provide practitioners, students or anyone involved with the delivery or learning of exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation with ideas on how they can 1. Look to improve monitoring procedures used during exercise 2. Explore different ways to set up the exercise classes and 3. Evaluate current practice and what can be done to help programme teams who are not able to provide a full dose of exercise sessions.
It will explore: current exercise guidelines, problems around prescribing those exercise guidelines and solutions to help patients meet the desired exercise targets. This workshop will be interactive with those attending expected to participate in brainstorming and the sharing of ideas.
Strong emotions focus and lock attention – keeping people trapped in problem behaviours. Therapeutic change cannot happen until the emotional arousal is reduced. This is why all health and welfare professionals need to know how to induce the relaxation response in their clients. Guided imagery and visualisation not only reduce emotional arousal quickly but can be used to reframe life circumstances through metaphor and to rehearse in the imagination any required changed behaviours and/or feelings, which dramatically increases the likelihood of those changes taking place in ‘real life’.
If you want to be able to help people effectively, this is a key course to attend – guided imagery is an essential skill required for removing phobias, curing PTSD, lifting depression and overcoming addictions or self-harm, and is also useful for raising self-confidence and increasing motivation. When you become confident in using these skills, you can begin to bring patients out of the emotionally-driven trance states of a wide range of conditions such as anxiety disorders, addiction, anger, stress overload, trauma, depression, chronic pain and much more.
That is why guided imagery is one of the most powerful psychotherapeutic tools available to us – and one you need in your ‘toolkit’.
This webinar will provide participants with an overview of the accreditation process for those wishing to apply in the pedagogy category. It will also be useful for those wishing to convert from a different category through the reaccreditation process. Examples of activities and evidence that can be used to meet the competencies for the pedagogy category will be shared. There will be time for participants to reflect and ask questions about how they might fulfil the requirements of an application.
Learning Outcomes of the Webinar:
By the end of the webinar it is anticipated participants will be able to:
Describe the accreditation process for BASES accreditation in the category of pedagogy
Recognise appropriate sources of evidence in relation to the accreditation competencies
Identify examples from their own practice that could be used in an application
