Start with the foundations: learn to guide people around the gym, plan safe sessions and help clients build confidence with exercise. This Level 2 course is your starting point for fitness coaching and further personal training study.
You’re new to fitness qualifications and want to develop gym-based coaching skills. No previous fitness qualification is required. Experience with gym exercises and free weights is recommended, and you’ll need to take part in practical activity.
Active IQ Level 2 Certificate in Fitness Coaching (610/5181/0). Complete seven mandatory units, plus Unit 08: Digestion, movement and gym induction, included in our course to support full alignment with the CIMSPA Gym Instructor Professional Standard.
Build a portfolio of evidence that is internally assessed and externally quality assured. You’ll demonstrate knowledge and practical coaching skills. Your tutor will explain what to submit and how to prepare for each assessment.
Use your Level 2 foundation to progress towards Level 3 Personal Training. If becoming a personal trainer is your goal from the start, ask us about the combined Level 2 & 3 package.
Our course guide is four weeks full-time or around eight weeks part-time. Your completion time depends on your study pace and successful assessments. Contact us for the course fee, available payment options and help choosing your route.
