Become A Certified Industry Leader With An ActiveIQ Qualification, the UK’s Leading Awarding Body.

So you’ve built a good career, you’re doing well financially… but something’s missing.

You look at your PT, or your friends in the gym, and think,

“That’s what I’d love to be doing.”

You’ve worked hard to get where you are — but the idea of spending the next 10 years doing something that doesn’t inspire you just doesn’t sit right anymore.

It doesn’t have to stay that way.

We help driven professionals retrain with purpose through our nationally recognised Active IQ qualifications — building careers in fitness that are:

Profitable & Flexible – design a lifestyle that works around you, not your boss.

Credible & Recognised – qualify as a Personal Trainer through an Ofqual-approved provider.

Purpose-Driven – do work that actually helps people and leaves you energised, not drained.

We’ve helped hundreds of people transition from corporate careers to thriving roles in fitness — and we can help you do the same.
