Program Goal

The Fitness Training & Wellness Program is designed to help students efficiently transform their passion for fitness into a rewarding career.  Upon completion, graduates will have the knowledge and confidence to thoroughly assess both fitness and sports performance clients, and design training programs to meet their goals.  Once they pass the certification exams, they will have the credentials that earn the respect of their peers, and help them secure employment at top health clubs and fitness centers nationwide.

Type of Instruction

The Program offers a high quality, campus-based experience with extensive hands-on training - delivered by experienced instructors who are active in the industry.  Instruction for the Fitness Training and Wellness Program consists of classroom lecture and hands-on training, both in the classroom and in the gym. Classes are highly interactive with instructors actively involved with demonstrations, discussions, activities and individual practice.  All of the fitness training components of the Program utilize NASM designed textbooks and study-guide materials.

Employment Potential

Careers in personal training are the fastest growing profession in the health and fitness field.  With extensive general wellness training, plus a double certification from NASM, as a Certified Personal Trainer (CPT) and Corrective Exercise Specialist (CES), graduates of MTTI-WellSpring's Fitness Training & Wellness Program should have excellent employment prospects at health clubs, wellness centers, and within corporate wellness programs.  Private practice is also an attractive career path once a solid network has been established. Many graduates use a personal training certification as a complement to certifications in massage therapy, nutritional counseling and physical therapy to enhance their appeal to both clients and employers.
