Prerequisites

There are no official prerequisites for this course — anyone can enrol. However, the course assumes you’ve completed a Certificate III in Fitness (or equivalent). You’re welcome to take the course without it for interest purposes, but keep in mind that on its own, this course doesn’t give you the qualifications to train people — you’ll still need a Certificate III or Certificate IV in Fitness for that.
