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.
No matter what type of learning you are; kinesthetic, visual or auditory, this program is for you, as it checks off all the boxes for all learners.

Why Choose Us

Every day they’re able to bring real life experience into the classroom, and relate to the students on a level that most academia cannot. Through their current involvement in the industry, they also are up to date on all the current trends and certifications, allowing them to provide effective guidance and support to our students, as they enter their new careers.
We’d be happy to provide prospective students with more information about our training and the industry as a whole. You can book an appointment by calling 403-802-0933, or emailing info@elevatedlearningacademy.com. By coming in for an information appointment, you’ll also get to view our Calgary campus, and possibly meet some of our students and instructors.
We look forward to hearing from you!

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.

Our Industry Connections

To even better connect our students to employers, we do a number of things: Throughout the course, we match interested students with hiring employers by sending the employers our students’ resumes and making email introductions. We also invite employers into the classroom to meet with students, and to inform students about their organizations, as well as their own career paths.
Many of these classroom visits turn into mini recruitment fairs, as they enable employers to personally meet the students and pass out business cards to interested applicants.

Calgary employers we’ve had in the classroom include; Glencoe Club, Calgary Winter Club, World Health, Goodlife, SpaLady, Gold’s Gym, 360Fitness, Body Be Fit, Fit 4 Life, Multi Sport Fitness, Survivor Bootcamp, and many more.

Additional Certifications

Another unique feature of our course is the greater number of certifications and designations that our students graduate with, in comparison to other academic institutions.
Our students don’t just graduate with a Diploma in Personal Fitness Training, they also receive an internationally recognized Personal Fitness Training Certification through the American Council on Exercise as well as their CPR/AED Certification through the Canadian Red Cross.
Preparations and examinations for these additional certifications are included in the curriculum, course length, and cost. So no additional time or money need be spent to acquire them.
