The GO Functional Improvement & Tourism (GO FIT) project addressed the gap in learning programs between HEI’s exercise and health experts, with both educational and clinical expertise, in collaboration with tourism manager’s specialists. So, the GO FIT project was designed to develop a new learning program, a web platform and a multimedia application with transdisciplinary approach for exercise, health and tourism, in order for the experts/educators/trainers to achieve relevant and high quality skills and competences in designing the appropriate program for tourists and helping them to adopt a new healthy lifestyle. In particular, the GO FIT project was designed to address tourists’ needs to adopt a healthy lifestyle, involving functional exercise. At first, analysis of needs for the tourist population was held. Then, based on this analysis of needs, a new learning program, the Joint Staff Training Event (JSTE), with a transdisciplinary approach for functional exercise, health and tourism experts (target group teachers) developed.Subsequently, the new blended teaching and learning materials was used by academics and clinicians to train the exercise science students to enhance the quality and relevance of their knowledge and skills on: how they will be able to apply functional exercise programs for tourists during their holidays, to prevent musculoskeletal conditions and improve their functional ability of their kinetic system while triggering them to adopt a new healthy lifestyle (target groups: students & tourists). Also, the final GO FIT academic course, which was offered in the HEI partner’s Exercise Science curriculum, will continually enhance the quality and relevance of exercise science students' knowledge and skills, also providing sustainability of the project (target group students).The main goal of the partnership addressed the need to develop a new intensive learning program (focused on transforming ‘ideas into action’ in line with Europe 2020 recommendations) for exercise, health & tourism specialists, which acts as a catalyst for their own professional development. Partners from different countries with transdisciplinary approach were selected and contributed to the present project:Clinical experts with dual role (physiotherapists and orthopedic medicals in Germany, ORTH) on current methods of clinical treatment for common muscular skeletal conditions (i.e. knee pain, shoulder pain, low back pain) and possible preventive strategies, UOS’s (UK) academic staff with knowledge in counseling on current methods how an individual can follow a healthy lifestyle (i.e. Exercise and eating habits), HEI’s staff (DUTH’s, EUC’s & KUC’s) with knowledge and skills in kinetic system’ discomforts, in chronic diseases and in body weight control management through exercise programs and Experts in tourism (TEIA & ALBA). Therefore, the partners teached how all these health promotion programs can be designed and applied in tourists in hotel facilities (gym, pool, gardens, beaches, sea etc) and eventually for general public. This collaboration demanded transnational and transdisciplinary teaching and learning materials to educate exercise leaders and tourists in how a healthy lifestyle can be adopted by them, enhancing and strengthening the role of higher education in EU countries.
