Submit a program
Everyone involved in the active-aging industry has an opportunity to submit a program. By sharing a program, you are helping the industry grow to meet the needs of a diverse aging population.
A “program” may be a single class or activity, an event, or a series of classes/activities with a defined beginning and end. For example, an annual health fair or a 6-week balance class or health promotion series or an activity that occurs twice a week.
Both best practice programs (experience shows they are effective) and evidence-based programs (research shows they are effective) are encouraged.
Successful programs are…
…effective in meeting the program goals, e.g., changing a health behavior, improving computer skills or improving physical fitness
…able to attract the targeted number of participants
…proven because they have been offered multiple times or over time.
Please visit the Program criteria determined by an ICAA work group. You’ll find helpful information on your role when submitting a program and on completing the form by following the links on the left menu.
Steps to submit a program
When you list a program on the Directory, you are letting colleagues know it is all right to duplicate or expand on your work, or the work of your organization. Please make sure that this spirit is shared by the leaders of your organization.
Thank you for submitting your effective programs, and promoting active aging.
