About Us

Founded in 2018, PT Institute was the first fitness education company to use online personal trainers as part of its expert delivery team. 

From the beginning, our philosophy has always been that our students learn best from qualified personal trainers. Personal trainers know exactly what it takes to grow a successful personal training business as they’ve done it themselves. This firm belief has resulted in the development of our flagship learning method, the Online learner programme, where students are assigned an active personal trainer online who guides them through their Level 2 and 3 personal trainer qualifications. 

The success of the online learner method has meant that in just a few years our team has expanded. We now have over 100 active trainers across the UK and a large number of assessment centres, making PT Institute one of the largest fitness education providers in the UK. All learners are given the option of face to face assessments or self-taping. More recently, PT Institute has partnered with several gym chains including Pure Gym, The Gym Group and Virgin Active.

All of PT Institute’s head office team are qualified personal trainers.

PT Institute is committed to giving people of all backgrounds the opportunity to become a qualified personal trainer through our competitive pricing and innovative learning methods. In doing this we’re producing high-quality graduates for the health and fitness industry.

Our qualifications are OFQUAL regulated and certificated by Focus Awards.
