The Cast Iron Guarantee

We believe education should lead to opportunity. Our guarantee exists because we’re confident in our structure and support. Complete your course, meet the criteria to qualify, and if you’re unable to secure work as a personal trainer, we refund 100% of your money.

Why are we the only ones doing this?

Most providers rely on high volume and low-touch support. They can’t guarantee your success because they never actually get to know you. We do things differently.

We commit to the structure, support and mentorship. You commit to engaging fully with the process. Together, that’s how careers get built.Terms and conditions apply. Full guarantee terms are confirmed when you enrol.

The personal training course, rebuilt for real careers

Most personal training courses get you qualified. We get you career-ready. Create is the only provider that combines the Level 2 and Level 3 Personal Training Diploma into one continuous journey, then lets you specialise in the area you actually want to coach in. The result is a qualification gyms recognise and clients trust.

A CIMSPA-endorsed Level 2 & 3 Diploma, 100% online, with no fixed dates. Most people qualify in around 3 months.

2

Get career-ready

3

Get hired

What's included

We rebuilt the PT course from scratch

Most PT qualifications haven’t really changed in over fifteen years. New standards get written, then folded into the same old units, taught in isolation with no thread connecting any of it. We took a different decision.

Traditional Level 3 Courses need to evolve

In the traditional route, Level 2 and Level 3 are separate qualifications, each taught unit by unit. Health and safety. Customer care. Gym programme. Next thing. The assumption is that once you've covered something you completely understand it. In reality, you saw it once and forgot it. That's how the industry produces trainers who can name exercises but can't build a programme for a real person.

I went from no fitness experience to fully booked at PureGym within 3 months of finishing my course.

Sophie Panayi

Create graduate · PT at PureGym

The 1:1 video feedback was unlike anything I expected from an online course. Same day, every time.

Chris Guyatt

Create graduate · PT at Virgin Active

I studied around my full-time job. No set deadlines meant I could actually finish, and I did, in 10 weeks.

The Cast Iron guarantee removed any doubt. Zero risk, and the course delivered everything it promised.
