Celebrating 20 years with 20 scholarships
Due to celebrate our 20th anniversary later this year, we are swapping our 20 years of success in return for 20 free scholarships as we look to give aspiring health and fitness professionals the opportunity to break into the industry.
We are encouraging people to nominate their friends, family and loved ones and let the leading training provider know why they deserve a place on our International Diploma in Advanced Personal Training. Those people with the best and most inspiring stories will win a place on the 6-week course, that will be available at any of our 30 venues throughout the country. The 20 winners will be announced on 4th June and the courses will commence in July.
The International Diploma in Advanced Personal Training, which is accredited by Active IQ, is widely considered to be the UK’s gold standard training qualification. Incorporating the Certificate in Gym Instruction and the Certificate in Advanced Personal Training, the diploma provides graduates with the knowledge and ability to instruct and supervise safe exercise with both groups and mixed ability one-on-one clients. The Diploma is fully recognised by both employers and the Register of Exercise Professionals (REPs) and will qualify students to Level 3.
Debra Stuart, CEO of Premier Global, said: "The popularity of personal training has been increasing year on year with more people choosing to enter this exciting and evolving industry. We want as many people as possible to nominate themselves or someone they know. From school leavers, ex sporting stars and those who’ve left the forces and are looking to re-join civvy street, to your average person who’s tired of the corporate world and is thinking about a career change, what better way to celebrate our 20th anniversary than to open up our doors to 20 deserving candidates who might otherwise not have taken the plunge? We’re really looking forward to seeing the entries come through and picking the most deserving candidates from across the country to continue to invest in the future of the industry and show how important the people within it are."
In order to nominate someone to win a place on one of Premier’s scholarships, please email premier@manifestcomms.co.uk with your story. Winners will be picked on Premier’s 20th anniversary on the 4th June and the scholarships will commence at a venue of the winner’s choice from July.
