Lifetime Fitness Academy

"It was great to be studying in an adult environment and not being treated like a kid," says Tom, "What's more, there was plenty of gym-based, practical work, so I knew that my job prospects would be much better when I finished the course."

"I'm now doing what I always wanted to do. You get a great feeling being able to help someone achieve their goals through fitness."

"It is the apprentices that are the future of, not just this industry, but most industries! I was seen as a 'failure' when I dropped out of college. Now, I am in a far better position by completing my Apprenticeship!"

"Because I completed my Level 2 and 3 fitness qualifications with Lifetime, I have now been accepted at University on both the degree in Nutrition and Food and Nutrition and Health with Psychology. My choice is to study Nutrition and Food with Psychology. If it weren't for Lifetime I wouldn't be going, so thanks for the brilliant reference. Please also thank Steve Osgerby and Paul Heppell for helping me through my qualifications."
