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.
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.
Business skills, client communication and real coaching confidence, built in from day one. Not left for you to work out later.
Direct access to our hiring partner gyms, including PureGym, Virgin Active and David Lloyd. Interviews, not just a certificate.
A year-one plan, revenue targets and clear CPD pathways. Create graduates build careers, not just client lists.
Same Create Standard across all three. The difference is how far you specialise. Here’s everything side by side.
Add one track with the Specialist package, or take all four with Ultimate. Each is built and mentored by a practising specialist, so you graduate ready to coach a defined niche, not a textbook.

This course is your foundation. Here’s how it fits into a longer career with Create.

Give back, mentor others and help shape the future of the industry.
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.
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.
More than 1,000 people train with us every year, so you can be confident you’re in safe hands wherever you’re starting from.

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