Active IQ or CYQ - IT doesn't matter

Every country has different regulations on certificates and standardization. I am based in the UK and there are two dominant brands - Active IQ and CYQ. There is actually NO difference in the qualification and its validity. The ONLY difference is the operational standards behind it. I have worked in vocational delivery for years and when people say one is more valid than the other makes me laugh as it shows they don't really get it. The course providers in the middle are the people who determine the delivery style and cost. I would recommend a company like Origym Centre of Excellence for the UK to get qualified as they are relatively cheap and provide the same qualifications as other companies for half their price and still maintain good service to be fair. When it comes to other countries across Europe there is a lack of standardization so the quality of qualification can drastically vary
