• Anatomy & Physiology
• and even a full exercise and coaching library

Along with hosting your course content, this online platform will become a point of reference for you when it is often needed the most – when you are working with your clients as a Gym Instructor.

To go alongside your online learning platform, you will be able to complete your learning by attending our esteemed practical workshops – these can be done around your online study.

You can complete this course first, and then progress onto the Level 3 Diploma in Personal Training at a later date. Or you can enrol on to the Level 3 Diploma in Gym Instructing and Personal Training course now which has all of the Level 2 content and Level 3 content combined – it also works out slightly cheaper.

Our practical workshops are delivered by leading fitness professionals, ensuring that you learn from those who have experience and can pass on their own knowledge of how to build your business and grow your client base – and importantly how to apply the practical skills to a range of different clients.

There are two days in total for your Level 2 Certificate in Gym Instructing course, and these are delivered at excellent ‘working-gym’ facilities in a variety of different locations in the UK.

ASSESSMENTS & ACCREDITATIONS

Assessments

It is important when enrolling on to a course that you have a clear timeline to completion and an understanding of what you need to do to pass.

As soon as you enrol, your course support tutor will arrange an Assessment Plan call with you so that they can talk you through each unit of the course and how they are assessed. This will essentially be your timeline to completion and will set you some motivation with your studies and targets to aim for.

 

Online assessments

Once you complete a unit online, it can be assessed immediately, allowing you to do the assessment whilst the knowledge is fresh and to save you hanging around for an exam. Our online end-of-unit assessments can all be done from the comfort of your own home when you are ready to do so. Your support tutor will be at hand to help with any revision and to get everything organised for you.

 

Practical assessments

To showcase the knowledge you have learnt from the practical workshops and the online content, as well as allowing you to show us how you will want to be acknowledged as a Gym Instructor and a potentially future Personal Trainer, you will build up a body of work by completing a course portfolio and working with a case study client.

This body of work will essentially be based on your training of an individual as an active client – analysing and educating them on their training and lifestyle habits.

Your course support tutor will be at hand to help with this every step of the way, this stage of your learning reflects who you are as an individual and it builds up your experience, knowledge and confidence in training a client.

As well as documenting a clients journey through their training and promotion of a healthy & active lifestyle, you will complete the course by submitting to us a filmed assessment of you training your client in a gym  environment.

This filmed assessment is again done in your own time and in your own environment, giving a real relaxed sense to the assessment, allowing you to truly be yourself and to also document your transition from study to being a fully qualified Personal Trainer.

Note: We can also arrange ‘in-person’ assessments.

 

Accreditation

The Level 2 Certificate in Gym Instructing qualification is governed by YMCA Awards and is industry recognised, both in the United Kingdom and Worldwide, meaning you can work as a personal trainer anywhere in the world.
Upon completion of our qualifications, you’ll also be able to gain membership with the standardising body for the Health and Fitness Industry – CIMSPA (previously REPS – The Register of Exercise Professionals).
