Fitness in Australia has grown significantly over the last few decades, with the establishment of several large industry organisations.
Upon graduating from your Personal Trainer Qualifications, you’ll have career opportunities with some of the industry’s biggest names such as; Fitness First, Goodlife Health Clubs, Club Lime, Virgin Active, Listen To Your Body, Get Going PT, Zap Fitness, Genesis, Anytime Fitness, Snap Fitness, Jetts and many more!
There are also a large number of boutique fitness studios, outdoor training businesses, corporate fitness facilities and community health centres that are regularly looking to expand and employ fitness professionals.
Our Job Board includes positions with many of these companies.
Some of these organisations include their own training courses and professional development updates. We recognise that these organisations need to train their staff to be able to deliver their own programs and services and encourage the upskilling of employees.
Our philosophy is that we want to have highly skilled and knowledgeable exercise professionals servicing the fitness industry. Therefore, we will always recommend that students complete the nationally accredited qualifications which are Fast Track PT Course and Certificate III & IV in Fitness.
While we have no direct affiliation with any of the organisations listed below, we are happy to provide students with information if they wish to complete further courses with them to enhance their employment opportunities.
We advise students interested in finding out further information to contact the organisations directly.
