REPS NEWS

REPs launches new website

As many of you may have noticed, we have updated the REPs website. The new site offers a more refreshed, modernised look and feel as well as making the time spent on the site more productive and enjoyable.

REPs Head of Digital, Doug Burtenshaw, gave us a brief insight into why the site has been developed.

Why has the REPs website been updated? Primarily, user journeys needed to be improved. We needed to make sure that when existing and potential members visited the site, they could get what they need as

quickly as possible.

The new site is a lot more compact, and there is a clearer focus on finding the information quickly.

What can REPs members expect from the

new site? There are now more direct ways of finding the information you want, which is fundamental.

We have also updated the design, meaning the website is now responsive to tablets and mobile devices. The upward trend we are seeing in people accessing the site

from these devices is huge, so this was at the core of the re-design.

Following from this trend, we have also ensured the new site has an increased social media presence, making it much easier to interact with REPs across our social media channels.

There has to be substance with this new-found style, too. Through the new website, REPs members will

find it much easier to source CPD points and new training.

What about those who aren’t REPs members, what

difference will they notice? The new site will make it much easier for members of the public to find a qualified exercise professional. This is a great service, and means REPs members can showcase their qualifications, and assures the public that their trainer is appropriately qualified.
