FAQ
Answers
What accreditation does Body Form Education hold?
Body Form Education Teacher Training has ITTAP accreditation. ITTAP assesses teacher-training programs against standards for curriculum, hours, practical experience, assessment and trainer requirements. See the Recognition page for the full statement and links.
Is the qualification recognised in Australia and New Zealand?
Body Form Education Pilates qualifications are mapped with AUSactive in Australia and recognised through Pilates Aotearoa in New Zealand.
Can I teach internationally?
Graduates teach across multiple countries. International recognition supports portability and credibility, but no provider can guarantee acceptance by every employer, insurer, professional body or country. Check with your employer or insurer first if it matters.
Will I get a job?
Host studios may recruit or recommend graduates, but Body Form Education does not guarantee employment. A Mat + Reformer qualification generally gives broader flexibility.
When can I start teaching?
You may apply for professional teaching work after all requirements are passed, the course is paid in full and the certificate is issued. Practice teaching before graduation must stay unpaid.
What is the difference between accreditation and recognition?
Accreditation means a course has been formally assessed against a professional organisation's standards. Recognition means a qualification is accepted or acknowledged by a professional body, employer or industry organisation. Requirements differ between countries, associations and employers, so check what applies where you plan to teach.
Do graduates get ongoing support?
Yes. Graduates can keep learning through new CPD certifications, educator support during their access period and an international community of instructors who care about evidence-informed teaching.
