Frequently Asked Questions

How can the Level 3 Assessor qualification benefit my career?

Our course teaches sound assessment principles that support budding fitness professionals in developing new skills and obtaining qualifications. You’ll be able to assess learners based on coursework and assignments while also monitoring them in a work environment.

Many students continue to work in gyms and progress to more senior roles, while others might set up their own businesses or work freelance.

Will I miss out on learning online?

Many people worry whether online learning can match the classroom experience, but our courses are designed to give you a complete learning experience. With practical lessons, real-work scenarios and case studies, each module ensures you meet the standards required to instruct students.

How long do I have to complete the course?

You can complete the course in up to two years, but many students finish it within a couple of months. It really depends on how often you study and whether you prefer to space out your learning experience.

Which qualifications will I receive?

You’ll receive the Level 3 Assessors and Level 3 Teaching qualifications as a dual certification course. However, we can also accommodate you if you’d prefer just one course. Please contact us for more information.

Which career progression opportunities are available?

Once you hold the Level 3 qualification in assessing competence, you can teach students in your chosen fitness discipline. However, there’s also an opportunity to gain qualifications in Level 3 Pre and Postnatal Training, Children’s Fitness and Advanced Nutrition Principles.

Gaining other qualifications means you can teach and assess various students, increasing your earning potential.
