Become a Personal Trainer: your step by step guide

Step 1: Set a career goal

Before you start your personal trainer journey, you need to decide what you want to achieve in the fitness industry. What type of work do you want to do? Do you want to work in a gym, outdoors, or with clients one-on-one? Once you’ve answered these questions, you can choose the appropriate qualifications.

Step 2: Get qualified

To become a P.T in Australia, you’ll need to obtain Certificate III and Certificate IV in Fitness. This will allow you to be both a group fitness instructor, gym instructor and P.T.

Alternatively, you can now fast track your personal trainer study with the Fast Track Personal Trainer course. Both of these certifications will give you the necessary skills and knowledge to work in the fitness industry.

Step 3: Choose your specialisation.

Personal training is a broad field, and there are many specialisations to choose from. Some of the most popular specialisations include group fitness, gym instruction, online P.T or personal training with a specialisation in nutrition.

Step 4: Choose your study method:

Many study methods are available to become a personal trainer in Australia, including face-to-face, online, and blended learning. Consider your lifestyle and commitments when choosing a study method.

Step 5: Pick your provider
