A. Once a £500 deposit has been paid, students are then enrolled onto the ESFA online personal trainer course and given access to the Active IQ online learning platform and to the learner manuals.  At this point students are able to begin their study for the course and are encouraged to make regular contact with the ESFA tutors if they have any queries or questions about the course content. Once the students have completed the e-learning, they are then required to complete some coursework prior to their arrival onto the 2 week practical element of the course. Again, ESFA tutors are available online to provide coursework guidance to the student.

Whats unique about the personal trainer course at ESFA??

 

A career as a personal trainer can be both financially and emotionally rewarding. Once qualified you could have the opportunity to run your own business and develop a career that you can build around your life. But making sure you find the right personal trainer course for you can make a big difference…

The simply priced training packages at ESFA, online support, and industry-leading over-the-phone Resource Center can’t be topped. You can get the answers to your questions, and encouragement when you need it. No one else offers this level of support. And it doesn’t stop when you graduate; even new graduates can call the Resource Center.

One of the highlights of ESFA is the stunning location of our campus. Set in the beautiful resort of Oliva Nova on the Costa Blanca, right on the edge of the Mediterranean Sea. After completing your online coursework from the comfort of your own home you will spend the final 2 weeks of your personal trainer course with our ESFA tutors and complete the practical part of your qualification. We chose our location with you in mind…to take you away from the stresses of daily routines, to give you the best conditions possible to focus your mind 100% on fulfilling your goal on your personal trainer course.

Boasting over 300 days of sunshine each year the mild winters, and pleasant summers, more bearable than further south, meaning the practical part of your personal training course is more likely to be taught outside at the campus rather than being stuck indoors. The 8km wide sandy beach is a few minutes walk away. The European Community has awarded a Blue Flag the crystal clear waters, protected by natural dunes. You are 40 mins drive from Benidorm with Levante, Mundomar and Aqualandia beaches. The Terra Mitica, Guillermo Amor Municipal Stadium and Poniente Beach are a 20-minute car trip away. 

 

Oliva Nova provides for interesting and varied evenings out for those who have the energy and inclination.
