If you are a fitness professional and are considering moving into management, have a look at our great new Fitness Manager Certificate. We offer fitness courses as CYQ qualifications (Central YMCA Qualifications) which are internationally recognised and Active IQ qualifications which are the most widely recognized and respected courses available - with a Discovery qualification the world is your oyster. Included in our provision as well as the Personal Trainer Course and fitness instructor courses, sometimes called gym courses, are the ever popular aerobics instructor, spinning, and exercise to music instructor courses (ETM).

Please talk to one of our advisers regarding payment options. You may wish to consider a Career Development Loan in which case visit www.direct.gov.uk/adult learning or contact 0800 100 900. Be sure to check that your personal trainer course or fitness course that you are considering is a qualification, many people undertake a personal training course only to find out their award is not a qualification and will not lead to employment.
