The European Health and Fitness Association is a non-profit organisation, which brings together European health and fitness professionals in a permanent, trans-national and wide-reaching forum. EHFA is divided in to 5 main working groups and commissions.

The European Register of Exercise Professionals (EREPS) is an independent process for the regulation of all instructors, trainers and teachers working across Europe in the exercise and fitness industry. Through its quality assurance process EREPS recognises that exercise professionals are qualified to do their job giving consumers, employers and partners in medical professions the necessary level of confidence in their professionalism and a structure for increased mobility of workers. Registration signifies an exercise professional has met prescribed minimum standards of good practice, including the adoption of a Code of Ethical Practice and that they are committed to raising standards through a process of continuing professional development. EREPs is regulated by the EHFA Standards Council using an accepted European qualification framework which describe the knowledge, skills and competencies exercise professionals need to achieve for registration.
