Calgary Personal Fitness Trainer Course
Become a Certified Personal Fitness Trainer in Edmonton… in four months. Next Course Starts Jun 17, 2024.
Four Month Personal Fitness Trainer Diploma Course
We offer a concise, compact, and efficient Personal Fitness Trainer course. In this very intense 4-month course, students learn everything they need to be a personal trainer, without spending additional class time learning unnecessary things related to the profession, things that might be nice to know, but are clearly not required. Similar Personal Fitness Trainer courses are delivered over a two-year period, and are not nearly as hands-on or as industry-specific as Elevated Learning Academy’s.
- In our four-month Personal Fitness Trainer course, students are able learn the theory behind personal training, and apply that theory in practice, in an actual gym setting. Approximately 40% of our curriculum is hands-on, practical application.
Why Choose Us
A Career with High Demand...
Demand for Personal Fitness Trainers is constantly increasing. Media attention, and general awareness of such diseases as obesity, diabetes, and angina, are just some of the reasons people are becoming more conscious of their health.
Another is the attention paid to popular entertainment shows like The Last 10 Lbs. and The Biggest Loser, both of which draw millions of viewers, and focus those viewers attention to the benefits and results that exercise can bring.
Finally, there’s been a great shift in our demographics, with a large majority of our population ageing. This ageing population has a large disposable income, is extremely interested in health and wellness, and is newly acquiring more free time to devote to it. All of this creates great opportunities for fitness facilities, and Personal Fitness Trainers alike.
