What to expect
The objective is to build the skill set that generates results. Knowledge is needed, and not all of it. We only need to master what helps us deliver the results and ensure client safety. We call it the 80./20 rule.
What is the 20% of knowledge that we can turn into the skill that helps 80% of all the people we will meet?
7-8 months, one-two hour per day on average
More than half of the time you invest is to build and polish the skills you must master as an effective practitioner. And that is a must because the skills are what people will value.
What is it that you must know before you join.
This is the first step in understanding the SPEC Training System. We've had pharmacists, designers, marketers, physiotherapists, and seasoned coaches go through the program and graduate with flying colors.
Timeline

Our Platform
All Our Courses are hosted on our online learning platform. Each Module includes video lessons, assignments, quizzes, the presentation slides and book study assignments to help you stay focused and productive.
Module One guides you through the scientific knowledge required to know and understand before proceeding to Module Two.
Module One is Online and takes 12 weeks to complete. The materials are supplemented with Online Group Accountability, planning and Q&A Calls every 3 weeks.
Once you have completed Module One, you can attend Module Two, a series of live workshops focused on learning client assessment skills, coaching skills and how to design an effective training program.
Module Two is taught over 12 days, supported by 12 sections of online material and takes 6 weeks to complete.
Module Three is a guided study, an 8-week module focused on practical assignments to be submitted to your master trainer for feedback.
Our goal is to make sure you can successfully assess, coach, design effective training programs and build your fitness business.
Each of the 8 sections deepens your understanding of how to best address the needs of specific populations as well.
Satisfy your curiosity
The Integrated Functional Fitness Framework is very different to other methodologies. It is the first accredited framework in our industry that teaches how to assess human movement as a whole, integrate foundational movement training, and understand human movement systems and their role in movement. Previously certified coaches have attended the Functional Fitness Trainer Course and found a massive difference in the material and skill sets they acquired.
If you opt to take the exam after you complete the guided study period, than 5 months is the estimated completion timeframe. Once you start the course, you will have up to one year from the start date to complete your examination.
You have as many opportunities as you would like to hold the exam for one year from the start of the course. Once you pass you will receive a certificate of completion. We do not issue certificates of attendance to this course.
When you pass the exam, you will receive an email with your ereps.eu username and password. On this account, you will find your certificate and you are now listed on EREPS as an exercise professional. The Europe Active accreditation is recognized in most countries on Earth because it sets the industry standards through the European Qualification Framework (EQF).
