Are you considering a career as a fitness trainer? Image Fitness Training’s courses can take students from beginner to professional personal trainer level.
Established in 2010, Image Fitness Training is the brainchild of its directors Simon Creedon and Conor Whyte. They both have trained and worked in the fitness industry for a combined 12 years. As a result, they recognised that, upon graduation as a personal trainer, students needed further ongoing “mainstream gym training” before being able to seek employment. Because of this, IFT developed a comprehensive Fitness/Group and Personal Training course.
Accreditations
After stringent assessments and protocol evaluation, the European Health and Fitness Association (EHFA) and Reps Ireland accredited IFT. Consequently, their students can avail of industry ready experience as well as the highest-level education.
Since then IFT has developed into a multi-national education provider. EHFA and Ireps, as well as CYQ, ITEC and Active-IQ now accredit them.
