Go from gym enthusiast to qualified personal trainer in as little as 2 weeks. Our most popular course combines your Level 2 Gym Instructor and Level 3 Personal Trainer qualifications into one nationally recognised diploma — with no entry requirements, ten free CPD courses, and a guaranteed interview with a leading gym chain when you finish.
Two nationally recognised qualifications, ten free CPD courses, and everything you need to go from beginner to working personal trainer.
If you’re serious about turning your passion for fitness into a flexible, high-paying career, the Level 3 Diploma in Gym Instructing & Personal Training is the most direct route there. It combines the two qualifications every employer looks for — the Level 2 Certificate in Gym Instructing and the Level 3 Certificate in Personal Training — into one nationally recognised diploma, at a lower cost than taking them separately.
