| As a guide the home study for each course will
take around 80-100 hours to complete. This should be spread over
a minimum of 6 weeks, although you may of course wish to take longer.
When you are choosing your attendance dates (your course code) please
allow for this. If you are at all unsure about how long it may take
you to complete the home study. You can wait until you have completed
the home study then book your assessment centre. |
Q. "Is it compulsory to join REPs once qualified? |
No it isn't. REPs is a register, not a qualification.
What employers will ask you is about your qualifications and that
your provider was delivering quality courses. |
Q. "Will I get work after the course?" |
| |
To match the recent Government health and fitness awareness campaigns,
private and public fitness centers have increased their fitness
staffing and recruitment enormously in the last 2 years. Whereas
many other industries have been affected by the credit crunch employment
opportunities in the leisure and fitness industry have never been
better.
A recent survey carried out by Leisure Business, in association
with all of the major clubs, stated that "demand for qualified
instructors is at present far exceeding supply. As a result salaries
and benefits employers are offering has increased to meet this shortage."
|
"A recent report by the City and Guilds, Future
Earnings, found that Fitness Instructors could become some of the
highest earners in Britain, earning up to £80,000 a year by
2020 as the population spending on leisure and fitness increases."
Sunday Times.
So the short and long-term outlook for properly trained fitness
instructors with a recognisable qualification has never been better. |
Q. "Do I have to be young and really fit to
be an instructor?" |
| Age and personal fitness really is of secondary
importance. What is important is that you have the commitment, enthusiasm
and the genuine desire to learn the skills required to instruct.
It is important to remember that some of the best and most successful
fitness instructors/ personal trainers are not always the youngest
or fittest but have a genuine passion for health and fitness and
are good communicators. |
Q. Do I need to bring a colleague with me on any
of the assessment days? |
Bodylogic do NOT require you to bring a colleague
on assessment. The other leading UK fitness industry training providers
insist you do have to bring a colleague with you... we think this
is unfair, costly and inconvenient to you!! |
Q. "Do you have any venues in the South? |
| No, however, many of our students come from there
as well as Scotland, Wales and even Europe!!! Our courses have been
specifically designed to minimise time spent attending a venue.
Many students find that although they can access a course closer
to their home, after considering the benefits of the Bodylogic home
study system, 2 days attendance, albeit in the North West far outweighs
the inconvenience of travelling to and attending a 6-8 weekend course
nearer to them!
We are happy to travel around the
UK or abroad to deliver training on site for corporate bookings. |
And finally…"Why should I choose Bodylogic
Fitness Instructor Training?" |
| With Bodylogic you will not be pressurised by sale
people on commission to sell you courses that are inappropriate
for you!! All communication with Bodylogic will be with your tutors,
not admin/telesales people! You will be taught by people who have
excelled in the fitness industry at every level yet remain down
to earth.
Feedback questionnaires from students show that the main reasons
for choosing Bodylogic and returning for further fitness instructor
training courses include: "the convenience of your distance
learning format", "your friendly, honest and personal
approach", "the excellent home study materials",
