Content

What makes a top-flight sports coach or fitness instructor? This certificate investigates the factors that contribute to success, and gives you an in-depth knowledge of how the sector works. Focusing on the needs of participants or clients, you’ll explore training, nutrition, motivation, customer care and management principles – while increasing your current effectiveness and skills in these areas. As you study, you’ll always come back to what matters most: applying theory to practice.
