Galway City Gym Personal Training Apprenticeship

Become a Qualified Personal Trainer. Build a Career. Change Lives.

The Galway City Gym Personal Training Apprenticeship is not your average fitness course. This is a comprehensive, real-world education experience designed for people who want to become confident, capable, and career-ready personal trainers—equipped to coach, grow a business, and make a real impact.

Whether you’re starting from scratch or already immersed in the fitness world, this program bridges the gap between certification and true confidence.

World-Class Qualifications

You’ll graduate with internationally recognised Level 3 & Level 4 Personal Training qualifications, delivered in partnership with our education provider (REPs accredited and Ofqual regulated). All theory is covered through a flexible, self-paced online platform—yours for life.

Real Experience on the Gym Floor

Theory is just the start. You’ll coach real clients, shadow experienced trainers, and work within a functioning community gym to learn how things actually run. You’ll also take part in our hands-on Graduation Weekend, covering biomechanics, energy systems, warm-up protocols, movement screens, and coaching assessments.

Business & Marketing Training with Brian Keane

We’re the only PT course in Ireland that includes a Business Builder Weekend delivered in partnership with bestselling author and fitness entrepreneur Brian Keane. You’ll learn how to attract clients, sell your services, and build a successful business from day one.

Guaranteed Space to Launch Your Business

Once you graduate, you won’t be left hanging. Every successful apprentice is guaranteed a spot to launch their PT business inside Galway City Gym (monthly rental applies). You’ll have mentorship, support, and a steady flow of opportunity—right where you trained.
