What Fitness Leaders are saying:
"As a fitness educator and Trainer of Fitness Leaders with the BCRPA for over 35 years I encourage all my students to register with BCRPA. BCRPA's course criteria is recognized as some of the best in the country. The courses we've developed ensure our students have all the education they need to be great fitness professionals. Becoming a BCRPA Registered Fitness Leader will let others across North America know you are a competent and educated professional and among the best in the industry."
~ Christina Truscott, BCRPA Registered Trainer of Fitness Leaders (Weight Training, Aquatic Fitness, Group Fitness, Older Adult, Personal Trainer), Victoria
"One of my favourite parts of the BCRPA Fitness Leader registration program is the two instructor competency practical exams (ICE's) for both weight training and personal training. These exams offer candidates the opportunity to take their instructor skills and knowledge to the next level by having to demonstrate to a Trainer or Supervisor of Fitness leaders (TFL or SFL) their one-on-one training abilities. There is no other certification program in North America that requires an in-person examination of this kind, thus placing the BCRPA to a higher level and producing excellent, job ready instructors."
~ André Potvin, BCRPA Registered Trainer of Fitness Leaders (Group Training, Weight Training, Personal Trainer), Vancouver
