What you’ll qualify with.

The trainers who keep older clients for years understand how ageing changes the body, and how to plan exercise that helps people stay strong, mobile and independent.

Our course leads to the Level 3 Award in Developing Exercise Sessions for Older Adults, and opens up a whole new group of clients to train, with the skills to help them stay active and independent for longer.

You’ll earn the Level 3 Award in Developing Exercise Sessions for Older Adults (RQF), a national qualification listed on the Regulated Qualifications Framework. It covers screening older clients, recognising common health considerations, and adapting activities to support each person’s participation.

Your certificate is issued by Focus Awards, a government-regulated national awarding organisation.

CIMSPA is the chartered professional body for UK sport and physical activity, and they’ve awarded us their highest provider rating: ‘Enhancing’.

You’ll need to hold a Level 2 fitness instructing qualification.

You’ll be assessed on the theory online and upload your portfolio.

TAIT™, the first AI tutor in UK fitness education, is with you around the clock for course questions, admin and anything you want to go deeper on. Ask at 11pm on a Friday and you get an answer in seconds, not on Monday.

And when you want a person, you can reach your Success Coaches by phone, email or our Help Desk, Monday to Friday.
