Access to your tutor is unlimited and there is no deadline for course completion.
As a guide, 3 - 6 hours a week allocated study time should lead to course completion in approximately 16 weeks. You can devise an assessment plan with your tutor based on how long you want your course to take and all tutors aim to provide feedback on assignment submissions within 48 hours.
The diploma is made up of 2 qualifications :
Level 2 Certificate in Planning and Delivering Gym-Based Exercise (RQF)
Level 3 Certificate in Planning and Delivering Personal Training (RQF)
Each course starts with a series of theory units and then has a practical assessment at the end. You will be required to work with a client of your choice and guide them through safe and effective exercise as required by each course. Your tutor will prepare you in full for this and explain each step in detail. You can either deliver and record the practical session yourself in a suitable fitness setting or you can attend one of our live assessment days (subject to availability)
Following the completion of the Diploma, you will be certified in 3 - 5 weeks and you can join the CIMSPA register of exercise professionals if you choose to.
We can also offer a guaranteed interview with some of the largest commercial fitness providers in the UK. Your tutor will discuss this option with you during your initial consultation.

Questions and answers
If I already have level 2 gym is the price reducee. Many thanks
Answer:Hi Tara, If you already have a recognised Level 2 Gym Instructors qualification you would only need to complete the Level 3 Certificate in Personal Training. Please visit our website for information on this course. Thanks
This was helpful.Hi I'm starting this from scratch, do I need a level 2 certificate or does the level 3 course cover both? Thanks
Answer:Hi Adam, The Level 2 Certificate in Fitness Instructing is included in the diploma. You will start with this course/ Please let us know if you have any other questions. Future Step Education
This was helpful.Hi, the course duration is 24weeks.How many hours would this possibly be please so that I can calculate weekly times. Thank you Helen
Answer:Hi Helen, 24 weeks is an average completion time which is required by Reed. We have had learners complete in as little as 6 weeks which would require intensive daily study and some that take a lot longer. If you have a timeframe in mind, your tutor will devise a scheme of work to meet your deadline. Please feel free to ask any other questions. Future Step Education
