Premier Training International continues growth with a new training venue to launch in Leicester

Premier Training International has announced that it is launching a new venue at David Lloyd Leicester. The Diploma in Fitness Instructing and Personal Training will be the first qualification available at the venue, scheduled to begin on 21st January 2012, as Premier works to increase its outreach and support aspiring fitness professionals.

The Diploma in Fitness Instructing and Personal Training is a full-time course that is widely considered to be the UK’s gold standard training qualification. Incorporating the Certificate in Fitness Instructing and the Certificate in 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).

Debra Stuart, CEO at Premier Training International, comments: "Leicester promises to be a fantastic new venue for us, particularly as we continue our expansion across the country. This growth is fantastic and reflects both our ambitious plans for the future and our status as the market leader in the provision of health and fitness qualifications."

Premier Training International aims to provide ways for people to gain respected qualifications in the health and fitness industry, without taking the traditional route of going to university. All of Premier’s courses provide nationally accredited qualifications through Active IQ, one of the UK’s leading Ofqual approved awarding organisations in the active leisure sector, and are fully recognised by both employers and REPs. Courses are delivered through face-to-face and distance learning as well as e-learning platforms, allowing students to access highly interactive online learning and resources.
