Jamie Crawford
Level 3 Personal Training Course Review
“I am currently working my way through my level 2 and level 3 personal training courses and I’m really glad I choose The Fitness Group after shopping around. The online lectures and all the learning and guidance you need to progress through the course. All the tutors have been more than accommodating, answering messages in the evenings if I’ve been unsure about coursework or needed help and always keeping the lectures interactive to ensure everyone understands the lesson. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to start any of the courses available.”
What Personal Trainer Course should you study?
Let’s start with the basics and then explore the additional personal trainer courses that can add the extra sparkle to your new personal trainer career.
If you have no previous gym instructor or personal trainer qualifications then you must start with either our Level 3 Gym and Personal Training Diploma or our Level 3 Specialist Personal Training Diploma.
Both of these courses include Level 2 and Level 3. The former also includes 2 accredited CPD courses of your choice.
There is no Level 1 Personal Training Course, you begin with Level 2, and you can do this within our combined Level 3 Personal Training Diploma Qualification.
We recommend thinking about how you will specialise beyond the Level 3 personal trainer course and support your new career.
For example courses like our Level 3 Pre and Post Natal course is a perfect partner for the Level 3 Personal Training Course if you are going to support women in your new career.
