Exercise for Children
The Level 2 certificate to train children in exercise, delivered through FOCUS Awards. The recognised qualification that lets you coach young people properly, safely, and in a way parents and clubs trust.
What qualification do you need to train children?
To train children in exercise you need a recognised Level 2 qualification for working with young people. With FASTER it is £300, paid in full or in three payments with Klarna at checkout, delivered through FOCUS Awards and carrying CPD points. Children are not small adults, so the course covers how to train them safely and at the right stage, and how to hold the attention of a group of them while they actually learn something. It opens up work with parents, clubs and schools, which is a market most trainers are not qualified to touch. Free return access to the content is included for life.
What you get
How it works
Who Exercise for Children is for
Exercise for Children is the Level 2 certificate to train children in exercise, delivered through FOCUS Awards. It is for trainers who want to work with young people properly, with a recognised qualification behind them rather than a guess and a smile.
It suits trainers who already see the demand. Parents asking if you take kids, clubs wanting someone certified, schools looking for help. This is the qualification that lets you say yes, safely and legitimately.
If you want to open up a market most trainers cannot work in, and do it well, this is your route. And with free return access, everything you cover stays with you for good.
