Level 3 Personal Trainer Course (RQF)

This CIMSPA-endorsed personal training qualification will provide you with the knowledge and tools needed to become a personal trainer of the highest quality. This course will impart invaluable skills, such as how to plan and deliver effective 1-1 training sessions for clients. You’ll also learn how to tailor workout programmes to clients of varying abilities and exercise goals, whilst also gaining insight into key subjects such as anatomy and nutrition.

The range of study options available means you can complete your course how you choose. We offer full-time, part-time, and online study options to provide students with the most suitable learning method for them.

For students who prefer in-person learning and want to complete their course quickly, the full-time option is best. This is taught by our team of expert tutors in a classroom setting, whilst also providing daily practical sessions on the gym floor.

Our ‘blended’ part-time and online study methods allow you to study the theoretical side of the qualification virtually via our award-nominated eLearning platform, with the option to attend practical workshops, held in gyms across the UK.

As well as delivering our practical workshops, our highly experienced team will also support you through the online components of the course. Should you require assistance, you can contact them via phone, email, and live chat 7 days a week (including evenings).

This accredited Level 3 Personal Training course is made up of a range of interesting modules that cover a broad variety of topics from advanced Anatomy and Physiology, to the Principles of Nutrition and the Business of Personal Training!

Of course, you’ll also gain the exact skills you need to be a successful PT, including how to motivate clients by guiding them through movements and exercises, whilst also designing sessions that allow them to meet their specific exercise goals. You’ll also learn how to adapt workout programmes for people of varying fitness levels as well as clients from special populations.

We recognise our students have varying learning styles, academic backgrounds and previous knowledge, which is why we offer multiple study methods including online, full time fast-track, and part-time courses.
