About IUSCA
The International Universities Strength and Conditioning Association (IUSCA) is a not-for-profit organisation established in 2019, dedicated to advancing excellence in sports performance and exercise science worldwide.
As the only international accreditation body for Strength and Conditioning (S&C) within higher education, IUSCA partners with universities across the globe to enhance academic standards, develop elite performance departments, and strengthen practitioner education in the S&C field.
Through its Degree Accreditation Programme and the International Qualifications Framework (IQF), IUSCA recognises and supports the highest standards of professional development. Its flagship qualifications — the Accredited International Strength and Conditioning Practitioner (aISCP) and Master Distinction (mISCP) — set global benchmarks for excellence.
IUSCA also publishes the International Journal of Strength and Conditioning, the sector’s leading Diamond Open Access journal, ensuring research and best practice remain accessible to all.
