Gym Instructor 

Yes, all our qualifications are internationally recognised. Our qualifications are awarded by Active IQ and endorsed by CIMSPA. We have students studying with us from all over the world and graduates operating in the industry after graduating with our qualifications.

The Level 2 Gym Instructor Course is the starting point for fitness professionals. It is an entry level qualification and provides a pathway to our Level 3 Personal Training Courses.

If you want to use this qualification as a pathway to Personal Training then you can either choose to study our Level 2 Gym Instructor Certificate first and then move onto our Level 3 Diploma in Personal Training or you can complete our combined Level 3 Gym Instructing and Personal Training Diploma which covers Level 2 and Level 3.

When you study with us at The Fitness Group our uncapped tutor support never runs out! We will adapt to your needs and your pace — our support package is completely distinctive in the industry — no other provider will provide such unique support tailored to you!

If you study on one of our full-time personal training courses, it will take two weeks to qualify in the classroom. If you study from home for the Level 2 Certificate in Gym Instructing then, we find that, on average, qualification tends to take around six weeks. However, the time frame is flexible.

You can attend any of these venues for one of our Full-Time Course Dates or you can study Online.
