Xplor Technologies announces partnership with Lifework Education to provide first aid and emergency support
Xplor Technologies has announced a partnership between its TrueCoach online platform for personal trainers and leading healthcare training company Lifework Education to provide quality first aid and emergency education to its community.
Aiming to provide coaches, trainers and instructors with exclusive training for emergency response, CPR and first aid programs, the collaboration aims to support more than 20,000 coaches at small businesses and local fitness studios around the world.
As a national training partner of the American Heart Association (AHA), the courses offered by Lifework Education provide leading first aid, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and automated external defibrillator training using AHA courseware - giving coaches the critical skills and knowledge needed to respond to and manage a first aid or sudden cardiac arrest emergency until emergency medical services arrive. The goal is to create well-rounded coaches that can not only support their clients in their fitness journey with best-in-class programming, but also with the critical skills necessary for their clients' overall wellness and safety.
Xplor General Manager - Coach, Fitness and Wellbeing, Michelle Furniss - a certified personal and qualified group fitness trainer - explained “we're pleased to bring our TrueCoach customers a new suite of resources in partnership with Lifework that will better prepare them for emergency response scenarios, and help instil trust in their clients.
"By giving our customers more access to vital skills and education, we're helping more boutique gyms and small businesses keep their communities safe and potentially, save lives."
Founded in 2015, TrueCoach by Xplor was created to give coaches an easy-to-use app to manage both remote and in-person clients and remove the burden of unnecessary administration when running their business. Over 20,000 TrueCoach users globally currently tailor their workout programming to meet their clients' individual needs via workout builders, video exercise libraries, metric tracking, embedded payments, and real-time messaging.
Lifework Education Chief Executive, Frank Swiger added “as a leader in healthcare education and emergency care certification, Lifework Education is thrilled to bring this partnership with TrueCoach to the health and fitness community.
"With TrueCoach, Lifework can continue to expand the use of our national network of quality emergency care training, including CPR and first aid training, to the health and fitness industry in over 100 metro areas across the country. We are proud to be working with the TrueCoach team in our shared goal to save more lives."
