What to look for when comparing Personal Training Courses

Choosing the right course can make all the difference when it comes to getting qualified and landing a job. Here are 6 things to look out for when comparing PT qualifications.

1

Ofqual Regulation

This is an absolute must – all gyms, employers and insurance providers will require that your Level 2 & 3 qualifications are regulated by Ofqual.

2

CIMSPA Endorsement

If you’re looking for high-quality training, look for a course that is endorsed by CIMSPA. Even better – look for a provider with CIMSPA ‘Enhancing’ status (like OriGym!).

3

Course Packages

While only Level 2 & 3 are essential, you can boost your career prospects by exploring specialist or Level 4 qualifications, for example an advanced nutrition course.

4

Learning Resources

The quality of learning materials matters! Our online courses are delivered via an interactive E-learning platform, but not all providers match these standards.

5

Student Reviews

Once your confident that a course is accredited, regulated, and endorsed by CIMSPA, check out the providers reviews to see what previous students had to say.

6

Industry Awards

One of the best ways to find the best PT qualification is to look for one that has recently won or been nominated for relevant awards.

Success Stories

  • Christina Whittingham

    Christina Whittingham

    Yoga Studio Owner

    “I was a teacher for years, and struggled to get pregnant, then demoted myself and focused on getting pregnant. I then had two children and lost all confidence so decided to train to teach yoga- and thought the only way people would come is if they had free coffee.”

    “I applied for the course in August, created the classes in September, had sold out classes by October, started 5 more in Jan and have the biggest yoga event in Manchester in March and it’s sold out.”

    PT & Mental Health Coach

    “OriGym is a fantastically organised and engaging course. The staff are very knowledgeable and offer great in person and online options. I completed my Level 2 & Level 3 Personal Training Qualifications with OriGym and recently undertook my Level 3 GP Referral Course assessment. I am currently studying my Level 4 obesity and diabetes course. Since graduating, I have collaborated with a number of gyms and brought my services and expertise to these spaces. It is wonderful being a part of a person’s fitness journey and watching them grow with my guidance.”
