Where the value is
What the price includes
A cheaper sticker price is not a cheaper course if you pay again to revisit it, or pay extra for the support that should have been there. Here is what £1,500 actually includes.
Three courses and the software
Level 2 Gym Instructor, Level 3 Personal Trainer and the Movement Trainer course, with PT Manager, FASTER's own trainer software, unlocked when you certify. Bought separately the parts are £1,875.
Who actually teaches it
Taught by the people who wrote the course, not handed a login and left alone.
What happens after you pass
Free lifetime return access to the content, forever. Most courses end the day you qualify.
Honest pricing
One price, payment plans at checkout, no deposit games and no sales calls.
Real recognition
Delivered through FOCUS Awards and recognised by CIMSPA, so it counts where it matters.
Support that answers
John answers the WhatsApp himself. No call centre, no chasing, no question too small.
Honest framing
Cheaper is not always cheaper
Some courses look cheaper until you add the resits, the extra modules and the assessment fees. Some look dearer for a logo. FASTER's price is the price, and it includes the things that actually change whether you make it as a trainer: who teaches you, the support after you pass, and a qualification that is recognised.
