Certificate In Personal Training (CYQ Certificate In Personal Training)
Introduction
An industry leading course that teaches you how to work on a regular one-to-one basis with clients, improving their well-being and achieving their objectives, through the provision of a planned personal programme.
There is no set order in which the three tutored modules and two on-line modules should be completed. So you can join the ‘course of modules’ at any time and switch between venues if preferred.
To ensure the best learning outcome, you will be required to have studied, on-line, your anatomy and physiology first. Following this, the three tutored modules and remaining on-line module can be completed in any order, to suit your commitments and personal schedule.
