Q: How is the course delivered?

A: In a nutshell, relevant, validated theory is taught in a simplistic manner which is then immediately transcended into the practical training environment. As previously stated, this is a very "hands on" course as a Fitness Trainer's work environment is exactly that!! results come from understanding the body's mechanisms and training specifically to achieve the client's goals - this is what we teach! We teach you to be the best Personal Trainer you can be while having fun and being motivated to succeed.

Q: What do I wear?

A: Simple, comfortable clothes that you would normally train in. Enclosed footwear as you will be in and out of the gym, on the beach and park etc, multiple times.

Q: What can I expect from the course?

A: Firstly, a whole lot of fun!! our students are always laughing and happy and we believe this to be the most conducive environment to learn and retain new skills and knowledge.
You will come away with a substantial amount of training and nutrition knowledge as well as a tremendous amount of confidence in your ability to provide personal training.

Q: Are Human Performances Centres course's Centrelink approved?

A: Yes. Just call Centrelink on 13 2490 and quote reference number: 4P737 to get further details.

Q: What are the qualifications that are recognised in the fitness industry?

A: There are three from the fitness package - Certificate III SRF30206, Certificate IV SRF40206 and Diploma SRF50206 in Fitness. For a qualification to be recognised it must have one of these codes on it. It should also have the 'Nationally Recognised Training' symbol on it as well. These are Government approved recognised courses. Be careful when someone offers you something else as quite often it's not worth the paper it's written on. Check with fitness Australia for qualifications that are recognised and they will give you the same list as stated above. There is nothing else! most are just marketing hype so buyer beware.
