Hi Mohini, to become an Activity/Lifestyle professional you will need to have a certificate IV or a diploma in Aged Care. You also must complete a minimum number of credit hours - which varies from country to country. Activities Coordinators develop, implement, and evaluate leisure activities to individuals’ needs and groups. They are also expected to facilitate the volunteers’ program, manage budgets, chair meetings, and supervise new staff among other duties. It is a great profession. Good luck!
