PT Academy was founded in 2009 based upon our perception of what we believed the industry needed at the time. We introduced a nationwide “mentor” based system where learners would be taught and mentored by active personal trainers and fitness professionals.
9 years on and having partnered with Pure Gym, The Gym Group, Bannantynes, Xercise 4 Less, Virgin Active and many other gym chains - Personal Trainer Academy is now the largest and fastest growing fitness education company in the UK. Recognised as the UK’s leading fitness and personal training course providers, we have the largest number of assessment centres and venues than any other UK training provider. We are the first education company to use active trainers as mentors, assessors and tutors of our courses.
We are committed to raising standards throughout the health and fitness industry by innovating learning methods, competitive prices and high quality graduates.

As we have grown, so have our partnerships. We are pleased to be partnered with most major health club chains in the UK.
This means there are literally thousands of potential sites for our graduates to work. We are also not limited to one gym chain allowing our graduates to choose a gym and location that suits them.

It really has never been a better time to become a fitness professional in the UK
We are the first training provider in the UK to develop pathways that enable you to complete your assessments from any where, with or without gym equipment.
Firstly, there are no theory assessments. You have a work book which you must complete. These can be completed via traditional hard copy, online or via an app.
All the qualifications have a practical assessment. We have different assessment pathways for practical assessments.
If you choose the Black label, Platinum or Flexi packages or any diploma where you are assigned a 1 to 1 mentor, both the preparation and assessment will be arranged by him/her. This will most likely take place in a gym or health club. You will be assessed and feedback will be given to you on the day. You also have the option of utilising the other pathways which involve you self taping either in a gym or studion. This recording musty be sent to your assessor who will mark and feedback. You must keep a copy of your recording for certification purposes and quality assurance.
If you are a home study learner on either the Gold or premier diplomas or any other home study package, you have optional practical development training and programme design days, thereafter you will need to attend an assessment day at a PT Academy UK national training centre. You also have the option of utilising the other pathways which involve you self taping either in a gym or a studio. This recording musty be sent to your assessor who will mark and feedback. You must keep a copy of your recording for certification purposes and quality assurance.
If you do choose the option to attend a practical assessment, the following qualifications are legible:
