Australian Fitness Academy launches face-to-face Personal Training courses in Brisbane

Australian Fitness Academy, in conjunction with Personal Best Personal Training, is pleased to announce the launch of face-to-face Certificate III & IV in Fitness courses in Brisbane.

Australian Fitness Academy has been delivering fitness certification courses for 20-years and trains thousands of Personal Training students Australia wide. Recent feedback has overwhelmingly been for a face-to-face course offering in Brisbane.

“The Australian market has experienced massive growth in the demand for fitness professionals and with this there has been a growth in fitness education providers over the past few years. The AFA and Personal Best team are pleased to be able to offer superior student support services and excellence in education that only comes with 20-years experience in fitness education delivery,” said Steve Hore, AFA National Manager.

For anyone who has been thinking of changing career and jumping on the path to a new and exciting career in health and fitness then now is the time to do so.

With revenue of over $1.2 billion and over 4 million Australians participating in fitness industry activities in 2012, the growth of the industry makes it a dynamic and rewarding industry in which to work.

The issues of population health, rising obesity and avoidable chronic conditions are alarming and show us that there is a need for more highly qualified Fitness Professionals in the industry. Figures from Fitness Australia estimate that Fitness Centres in Australia can provide direct savings of up to $108 million per annum in health care costs. It has also been shown that just a 3% increase in the use of fitness centres by adults has the potential to save $204.8 million in health care costs and lead to 2609 extra full-time employees in the workforce.

Full-time face to face classes for the Certificate III in Fitness (Gym Instructor) commence at Personal Best Personal Training in Toowong on Monday 1st July 2013. Classes run Monday’s and Wednesday’s from 9.30am – 4.30pm and Friday’s from 9.30 – 1pm.
