The study analyzes the training and job profiles of physical activity and sports professionals who work with people with disabilities in Spain. Using a descriptive, quantitative methodology, standardized questionnaire-based interviews were conducted with 214 people working in this sector. The results indicate that the professionals do not receive quality initial training and when offered various training activities, they prefer to attend courses. An analysis of the employment status shows that most professionals work in companies, many without a formal employment contract or as temporary staff. Adequate initial training and varied continuing education can fulfill the need for professionalization of physical activity and sport for people with disabilities in Spain.
