4 04 Helping you get ahead BECOMING A NEW PERSONAL TRAINER Becoming a new personal trainer is not an easy decision to make. With high unemployment and a tough UK economy landscape, many people are searching for alternative careers to safeguard their futures. I should know because that s how I started. After working overseas for a number of years I found it very difficult to get a decent job in the UK. I wasn t sure how I would survive, so I had to think very carefully about my future and knew that I needed to be in a well paid job, which I enjoyed and enabled me to help people. Having spent many years going to the gym it was an environment I felt comfortable in, plus I felt I would be able to adapt easily. Then I completed a REPs approved Level 2 Fitness Instructor and a Level 3 Personal Trainer course. As we noticed that the needs of our students kept changing, we decided to expand our range of courses, keeping the same high levels of training quality. So now we also offer Sports Massage, which complements our Personal Training Courses. We also have added Health and Social Care Diploma which allow students to start a career within residential and community settings. We will be offering more courses as we adapt to the growing needs of our students. Watch this space. We look forward to helping you get ahead. Simon Bubb Managing Director Be A Better You-Training
