WSA maintains Emerging Quality Assurance standard as CIMSPA Education Partner
The Welsh Sports Association (WSA) is pleased to have maintained the Emerging Quality Assurance standard as an Education Partner of CIMSPA.
This award confirms that the WSA’s training and courses adhere to CIMSPA’s codes of conduct, as well as other good practice guidelines such as health and safety and safeguarding.
The reviews are carried out by CIMSPA’s team of independent Quality Assurance Advisors and are split into three categories:
- Quality of Education
- Learner Journey
- Marketing and Promotion
CIMSPA’s role is to ensure that everyone in the sport and leisure sector is working to a consistently high standard, and are equipped with the right knowledge, skills, and behaviours to perform their roles and progress in their career.
To ensure endorsed products are of the highest standards, they ensure all partners go through a quality assurance checking process leading to a CIMSPA Quality Assurance Outcome.

One of several training opportunities available through our Online Training Platform, the WSA’s First Aid in Sport course, in particular, is CIMSPA-endorsed and quality assured.
The course offers participants an introductory understanding of how to prevent injury and promote safety measures as a Coach/Volunteer, and how to initiate first aid whilst waiting for a medical professional.
We currently have the assessments of other CPD opportunities offered by the WSA pending, while selected Lunchtime Learnings and Communities have been awarded CPD points by CIMSPA.
“Maintaining this quality assurance standard demonstrates our commitment to raising standards across the sector and ensuring that the training we provide continues to be trusted, credible, and impactful,” commented WSA Business Manager, Steffan Howells.
