Certificate IV

The fitness industry is booming. In fact, the Australian Government’s Job Outlook Service projects that the number of jobs in the fitness industry will grow to 21,000 over the next five years. A Certificate IV (SIS40221) will equip you with the knowledge and skills you need to help people live their best lives.

This nationally recognized fitness certification course will build upon your Certificate III in Fitness. You will learn a variety of skills in fitness activities. With these skills, you can help your clients to grow their strength, increase their fitness, rehabilitate from minor injuries, lose weight, and improve their general health and wellbeing. You will also be able to evaluate your clients’ physical condition and advise them on how they can progress their fitness.

Entry to this personal training certification is open to those who already hold a Certificate III in Fitness (SIS30321) or those who have completed the Nine Certificate cert III and IV Pre-requisite modules. If you have not yet completed the Certificate III, a popular alternative that most students enroll in is the Certificate III and IV in Fitness.

While this fitness certification course won’t  teach you everything you need to know about caring for high-risk patients, you will be able to know the right healthcare professional to refer clients. This certificate will also allow you to work in diverse areas in the fitness industry, including gyms, community facilities, fitness centers and open spaces.

Just like in the Certificate III course, Personal Training Academy (PTA) provides hands-on training for all face to face students in our fully-equipped fitness facilities.

At PTA, we believe that when personal development is powered by engagement and excitement, the final results will be greater.

Receive training from industry experts

Part of what makes PT Academy different is our team of dedicated, highly experienced, and educated lecturers who provide comprehensive and personal approaches to your learning. Our instructors will ensure that you start your career with confidence, knowing that the knowledge and skills you have received are those needed in the fitness industry.

More job opportunities

While you can get employment with a Certificate III in Fitness, most businesses in the fitness industry look for graduates with a Certificate IV. Apart from opening up more job opportunities, this certification course is also a pathway to further studies. For example, if you plan to pursue a Diploma of Fitness, you will need a Certificate IV in Fitness and some experience working in this industry.

At PT Academy, we also go the extra mile to set up interviews for our students with some of the most reputable fitness facilities in Australia. For instance, Virgin Active, Fitness First and Snap Fitness, among several others.
