Additionally, our commitment to affordability ensures that all students can turn their dreams into reality without financial barriers.

Our students are our top priority, and we care about providing them with the highest standard of teaching and support. That’s why we go above and beyond to offer internationallyrecognised and accredited courses that open doors in the industry. OriGym qualifications are regulated by Ofqual and awarded by Focus Awards, which ensures that our courses meet and exceed industry standards. Additionally, our personal training diploma is endorsed by CIMSPA, a stamp of approval that is highly sought-after by employers in the fitness industry.

OriGym is the highest-rated training provider in the health and fitness industry, with more 5* reviews than anyone else! This is just one of many ways to demonstrate how we consistently exceed expectations and always go way beyond what’s required. From the individuals we choose to be part of our team, to the learning materials we create for our students and career services we provide, we exceed in every capacity, allowing us to offer an outstanding level of support to all OriGym students.

In 2024, we had the honour of winning the British Fitness Awards 2024 Training Provider of the Year, followed by being a finalist for UK Active’s Education Provider of the Year.

All of OriGym’s qualifications are regulated by Ofqual and awarded by Focus Awards, a leading UK awarding organisation.

Ofqual is the vocational equivalent to Ofsted and was set-up in 2010. They are a nonministerial government department that regulate qualifications and oversee reform of qualification frameworks within the health and fitness sector amongst other industries. All of OriGym’s courses are Ofqual regulated and exceed the standards set.

In 2024, CIMSPA awarded OriGym with the highest rating on their quality assurance framework – ‘Enhancing’ status. Receiving an ‘Enhancing’ status following this assessment is a testament to the hard work of OriGym’s staff and the quality of the training we provide.

Focus Awards is an established Awarding Body providing nationally recognised qualifications in the UK. Focus Awards offer a range of qualifications and certifications across various sectors and industries, and qualify thousands of students each and every month. Focus Awards works with training providers like OriGym to deliver Ofqual-regulated qualifications.

CIMSPA, or The Chartered Institute for the Management of Sport and Physical Activity, is the professional development body for the UK’s sport and physical activity sector. CIMSPA provides leadership, support and empowerment for professionals working in sport and physical activity and a single unified voice for the sector. CIMSPA helps develop a vibrant, UK-wide sport and physical activity sector, led by professionals providing advocacy and leadership and working in partnership with its stakeholders to help ensure the highest standards of service delivery.

For each course delivery method, you have 2 or 3 years to complete the course(s) from when you enrol. If you purchased 1-2 courses (excluding CPDs), you have 2 years. If you purchased 3 or more courses (excluding CPDs) you have 3 years. If you require an extension, a re-enrolment fee of £200 can be paid.

With our online courses, you can complete the course at your own pace, wherever and whenever suits you best.

This means that you can fit your learning around your existing commitments and according to your personal learning preferences.

You will study via our innovative E-learning platform, which includes a huge range of resources, including:

• E-Books
• Quizzes
• Video demonstrations
• Interactive learning

You will work through these resources ahead of your in-person practical assessment at one of our many physical locations across the UK.

Our part-time courses provide the flexibility of online study while still offering the benefits of face-to-face learning through in-person workshops. Also referred to as ‘blended learning’, this study method offers the best of both worlds.

GYM INSTRUCTOR AND PERSONAL TRAINER WORKSHOPS

If you choose to study our Level 2 Gym Instructor or Level 3 Personal Training course part-time, your studies will be split between our online learning platform and practical workshops. During the workshop, you’ll have the chance to ask the tutors any questions you may have, and you’ll get the opportunity to receive invaluable feedback.

SPORTS MASSAGE WORKSHOPS

Students on our part-time Level 3 Sports Massage course can also expect to learn through a combination of online study using our e-learning platform, and practical sports massage workshops. There are 3 SMT workshops: Workshop 1, 2, and 3. Each is held over one day.

YOGA WORKSHOPS

Our part-time yoga courses combine online study with practical learning at in-person workshops with an expert yoga tutor. There are two yoga workshops: Workshop 1 and Workshop 2. Each is held over one day.

GYM INSTRUCTOR AND PERSONAL TRAINING COURSES ONLY

Our full-time courses are run from our Liverpool location and are a great option if you have the time to commit and want to get qualified fast.

You will be part of a cohort of a maximum of 8 other students. Our expert tutors will teach you through a combination of training on the gym floor and in the classroom.

You must attend the course Monday – Friday, 9am – 5.30pm at the Liverpool training centre. You must attend each of the delivery days to ensure that you are prepared for the assessment.

Failure to do so may result in an immediate referral of assessment.

All students must successfully complete their Level 2 Gym Instructor qualification in order to start the Level 3 Personal Training Course.

NO EXCEPTIONS WILL BE MADE.

Should it be the case that you do not complete the Level 2 Gym Instructor qualification you will be expected to complete the relevant areas either online or by way of another assessment prior to moving forward on a different Level 3 Personal Training Course at a later date.
