Does Studying An Online Personal Trainer Course Make Me a Certified PT?

Whilst you can become a Certified Personal Trainer through an online personal training course, at Future Fit we believe in providing the blended learning approach to ensure our students are the most successful when getting to the gym floor.

Online personal trainer courses would be delivered exclusively through a computer or other virtual platforms, including videos, online quizzes, podcasts, and webinars. On the other hand, blended learning combines these online learning elements with hands-on practical sessions, such as tutorials workshops and mock assessments with real clients.

Some may argue online learning has an advantage in its flexibility, however would lack the face-to-face interaction and the chance to develop applied skills, making it a beneficial choice for practical learners.

Why study Future Fit's Online Personal Trainer Courses?

Above Industry StandardWe raise the bar higher so you can exceed employer expectations. Set yourself up for success with the knowledge that you are getting the highest level of training, as our personal trainer courses are mapped above and beyond the industry standard.

Online & Hands-On Practical ExperienceBuild confidence and get career-ready with hands-on training. Being a PT is about more than knowing how to work out effectively in theory. Perfect your teaching technique and take charge of your future by leading peer sessions, running classes and getting practical feedback all from a qualified and practicing PT Tutor.
Training Beyond Traditional FitnessWe provide you with the knowledge to improve wellness in your community. Your learning with us goes further than how to train a client in the gym. We're aligned and working towards the same goal as industry leaders such as Sport England to improve health and wellbeing through Personal Training.

What qualification will I need to be a personal trainer?

You will need to complete a Level 3 Diploma in Personal Trainer Course that covers:

  • Anatomy and Physiology (which includes the Exercise, Welfare and Health course)
  • Level 2 Gym Instructor
  • Circuit Training
  • Functional Training
  • Advanced Anatomy and Physiology
  • PT Programming and Coaching
  • Building your Fitness Business
  • Nutrition and Weight Management
