    Entry Requirements

    As this is a Level 4 certificate, you must have specialist knowledge of personal training and understand how to enhance athletic performance and support clients to lose weight. Our entry requirements include:

    • All learners should hold a Level 3 Personal Training qualification or an equivalent.
    • An understanding of theoretical learning theories surrounding fitness and the ability to apply them.
    • Be able to use cognitive and practical skills to develop bespoke training plans for clients.
    • Understand how to handle unpredictable situations and maintain a safe environment for clients.
    • We also expect anyone taking part in this course to have a passion for the fitness industry and help clients refine their nutrition, remain active, and reach their weight loss goals.
    • A level 4 personal training qualification gives you plenty of opportunities to move into management, but it's more intensive than the level 3 diploma in personal training.
    • If you're career-focused and want to become an advanced qualified personal trainer, we guarantee you'll have access to the best course material and support from nutrition and exercise professionals along the way.
