On-The-Job Training
During the 90 hour PT course, you will be required to complete a `Live Case Study’ as part of the certification requirement. This means that you will need to train `somebody for real’ the ACE way. In order to help you simulate what the actual job is like, we will get real paying clients for you from our sister company (EMPOWERED!)
What you will benefit from this `Live Case Study’ is the personal mentoring and coaching by our master trainers/fitness educators. We will be there during the first interviewing session so both master trainers and students understand client expectations. We will then plan & run the assessment sessions together. Once assessment session and test evaluation are done, the master trainers will work with you to design a safe and effective programme (the ACE way) for the client. Master Trainers will ensure you know how to carry out upcoming PT sesssions by providing you personal mentoring sessions and feedback sessions.
Upon completion of the 90 hour PT course, you will sit for the ACE exam. Once you are certified, you will have the right level of confidence & skills to take on your FIRST client irregardless if it is in commerical gyms, free lance or PT studios.
