Laying the Professional & Scientific Foundation

 

From the moment you step in, we focus on 'your' vision. You will start designing your ideal Personal Training business plan (a live document that guides your learning journey), ensuring every module directly supports your goal of launching your dream business immediately upon graduation.

 

This dedicated focus, combined with our tutor support, means you are fully prepared for both industry assessments and commercial success.

 

You will dive into the core principles of Anatomy, Physiology and Nutrition over your early weeks of the diploma. Your tutors will show you exactly how to apply this knowledge to real-world client needs too - no irrelevant theory, just real-life, industry relevant essential science.

 

From week three you'll move onto the gym floor - linking theory to practice. You'll master core exercise coaching techniques on cardiovascular and fixed-resistance equipment, as well calisthenic assistance tools, preparing you for your online theory exams and your initial client onboarding pack.

Advanced Coaching, Assessment & Specialisation

​

You'll practice advanced coaching, safety, and spotting techniques for compound free-weight lifts, functional equipment (like Kettlebells, TRX, Slam Balls), and advanced training systems (Supersets, Drop Sets, GVT).

You'll be formally assessed on your L2 Group Induction skill in week 6. We then workshop how to conduct client health and fitness assessments (vital data gathering).

 

From week 7 you'll learn the highly sought-after skills of Postural Analysis and Corrective Exercise. You'll learn to 'identify, release, and activate' muscles, setting you apart from general PTs.

Finalising Business & Achieving Certification

​

Your 12-week Periodised Programme and client specific session plans will be finalised during the final phase of the diploma - this will also include scenario based session and deivery adaptation assignments to ensure you're ready to deal with a wide range of clientele.

 

Tutors provide a final sign-off, confirming your plans are assessment-ready, and then you will learn the soft skills required to effectively find, nurture and retain your clients. You will practice the critical skill of client consultation, covering rapport, behaviour change, and also how to sell your services professionally. This prepares you for your mandatory consultation video submission.

 

Your final week will see you complete an assessor observed, summative practical assessment. This is the culmination of your hard work! Together with your client you will train you will deliver a full PT session that is designed specifically to meet their individual needs.

​

Upon completion of all assignments, workshops and assessments, week 12 will aim to see you graduate as a fully qualified, globally recognised and insurable Level 3 Personal Trainer.
