Student Testimonials
The online learning package is really good with presentations that back up the points held within the training manual.
I have just completed my Level 4 Strength and Conditioning Award, and I can honestly say that this has been one of my favourite educational courses that I have completed. The learning materials are very detailed, making it easy for me to level up my knowledge base. The assessment structure was very well-rounded, nicely mixing exams, case studies, and practical’s. I would definitely recommend this course. –
The strength and conditioning courses materials were really well put together and informative and the instructors explained everything really well. The course covered the different aspects of strength and conditioning and broke everything down into the theory, programming for an athlete, and competency on coaching movement skills. I’m glad I did this course because I enjoyed it and gained a lot of useful knowledge and skills as a coach, together with greater confidence in myself and my abilities. It’s great to get that affirmation from an accredited professional organisation of achieving the Level 4 Strength and Conditioning Coach Award.
Superb course, very informative and useful. The online learning was great, and the whole process was smooth and simple. Thank you!
From start to finish the content was brilliant and I felt I had the tools I needed to navigate the course towards completion. I usually complete a course to feel a little lost and ‘what now?’, but the elements in the course set you up to plan ahead while you’re still studying and require you to work with athletes to develop your skills as a coach before doing so professionally. Lots of ‘out of your comfort zone’ moments and as a result, a much better prepared coach upon graduation. Loved. This. Course.
I thoroughly enjoyed working with Strength and Conditioning Education for my L4 S&C Coach qualification. I found the learning resources really thorough and the coaching team knowledgeable, friendly, supportive and really helpful. The sales and admin team were also great to deal with and S&C Education also provide a lot of value-add services and onward support to their students. I highly recommend them to anybody wanting to take the step up to L4.
An excellent if not one of the best strength and conditioning courses I have done. Really easy structure to follow, the level of detail in the course is excellent with fantastic coaches who have crazy knowledge!!! This course really allowed you to test your knowledge and learn so much, I found it fantastic! I would 100% recommend!
I have completed my L4 S&C just in time before lockdowns has started in UK. Tutors was really helpful and explained things very well to me when it was a bit challenging to understand technical stuff as english is not my native language. After receiving top class service in my course it was a no brainer to sign up for their mentorship programme which is now helping to improve my coaching and business skills further. Highly recommend to everyone!
The course was very thorough and there was loads of resources to draw upon and support from tutors at any point if you felt stuck. It’s helped me deliver a better service to my clients especially in terms of programming and has opened up opportunities for my career.
Great Course with Great Support from Chris Duncan. I’ve learnt a ton in my time studying with Strength & Conditioning Education and am now in an even greater position to coach my athletes to success. The Level 4 is a great stepping stone to a career working with Athletes. 💪
I thoroughly enjoyed the process to earn my L4 S&C qualification. The resources available were excellent and the guidance was as well, there was clear feedback from the assessments which will help me develop further. I cannot fault strength and conditioning education at all. I will recommend the course to anyone looking to gain the qualification.
The best set of online strength and conditioning courses I have ever done! What made my experience great was the online portal as it was if Brendan was talking to me in person. The video modules are great and you can go at your own pace with no pressure. The company are continuing to evolve and promote their business to the best of their ability and everyone seems to work together. To be honest the only stressful parts where my own inability to use excel and then i learnt the basics. It took some time but nothing thats worth having will come easy. I also love that this course is no Mickey mouse course that you can buy off Wowcher for £15 and then become a ‘personal trainer’ within 2 weeks! I lost email replies towards the end of the course which delayed my work slightly. Cannot complain though because the course was very humbling and educational to myself and it has helped me massively going forwards. Thank you strength and conditioning education for all of your help and patience.
I can’t recommend this course enough to anybody wanting to progress their coaching career. The course material is well structured and practical with all the fat trimmed. The team are exceptionally helpful every step of the way, with multiple streams of contact via emails, calls, WhatsApp and weekly live zooms. The assessments are not just a great marking tool but give you the confidence to feel that you know what you’re doing. I can’t wait to develop this part of my business. Thanks team!
The support & feedback from the team was prompt, developing and, equally inspirational to my learning. Sincerely one of the best courses I have completed to date. Strongly recommend the course to those wishing to gain and develop future knowledge skills in Strength & conditioning.
Is a great course, learned so much from the online lectures and modules including the two day practical course in Stockport! The Olympic lifts learned I have found awesome for my full time Muay Thai boxing gym as they have everything covered in that field, Great support from Chris Duncan on the practical and online ! FIVE STAR from me keep it up Team!
Best education within the fitness industry The best learning experience from all of my education within the fitness industry to date. I completed the L4 S&C qual back in 2020 and am still involved with the company now as part of their Elite Coach Network. Cannot recommend enough. Brendan and his team will go out of their way to help you achieve your goals, beyond just completing a course.
I signed up and completed the online S&C, including the practical workshop. From the offset, I was impressed with the inner workings of the website and how easy everything was to click through – which was my major concern with signing up for an online course. Communication throughout was great and gave me that extra little push to work that little bit harder and get it completed. The practical workshop was very insightful, allowing me to put these skills into practice before the assessment. I chose to do my assessments virtually, which was ideal due to my schedule and although the upload procedure wasn’t as straight forward as I’d have liked, I was supported through by my assessor and he helped me to get there in the end. Highly recommend this course, if you’re considering – just go for it.
I recently completed my Strength & Conditioning level 4 course with Strength & Conditioning Education and I would recommend them to anyone. They have helped me take my coaching skills to the next level. The instructors were knowledgeable, friendly and able to break down complex topics into easily understandable modules. They also provided me with plenty of evidence-based strategies and tools to help me understand everything. The course also helped me improve my confidence as a Coach and provided plenty of opportunities to test out what we learned with other students. I left the program feeling as I had achieved something, inspired and full of new ideas. I highly recommend Strength & Conditioning Education to anyone looking to become a better Coach.
This was a fantastic course which has changed and enhanced the direction of my private gym/personal training business and also way I approach training personally. Jo was so helpful and knowledgeable when first discussing with me my needs and assessing whether or not this course was the direction for me. The physical training days certainly puts you through your paces and provides a wealth of information which has proved invaluable. Tom’s experience and knowledge was top rate but he also provided such a supportive and fun learning environment, it was a great two days. The assessments team support with the course work and practical assessments I can’t fault, a great team of people all round. This course changed the direction of my business enabling me to provide clients with more, not only in their own training journey but in my own knowledge, confidence and ability to teach. It has opened up opportunities for sports specific team training which is so fulfilling and I am currently completing the youth coaching course with S&C.
In summary, I completed the fundamentals course and then progressed to the L4 S & C course. Really enjoyed it, flexible study, work at your own pace, break it down, no pressure, it was like going to University again! Worked out nicely for me, I’ve got multiple sports coaching certificates, graduated in Sports Development but I felt something was missing then I found Strength & Conditioning Education! I will certainly look at future courses and programs to excel and further increase my knowledge and experience. Just to end whenever I needed help via text or email I have gotten a swift response so 100%. Chris has been encouraging and supportive!!
The L4 S&C course was very thorough. The modules covered initially gave the necessary learning tools to execute the case study. The case study itself required a thorough athlete assessment, requiring the coach to understand, design and implement an annual training protocol based on an athlete and sport of your choice. The entire process forced me to dive into unfamiliar territory and it’s been a truly rewarding and knowledgeable experience.
I feel very lucky to have come across Strength & Conditioning Education. Very professional throughout with a very supportive and enthusiastic tutors and coaches, and an amazing library of resources and ongoing learning opportunities. I’ve been a PT for a few years before completing this course and it was a worthy investment and, a game changer. I have so much more clarity and confidence when it comes to designing a training programme. The biggest win though was the opportunity to learn olympic weight lifting from such great and experienced coaches. Highly recommended.
Brilliant course from start to finish. The content and the way it was presented was really easy to follow and the knowledge I gained from the course has taken my coaching to the next level. Highly recommend.
I have now completed the level 4 S&C course. I found it informative and has greatly improved my confidence when training my clients. The platform was easy to navigate too.
Really enjoyed the course – the content online really is brilliant, so much on offer to learn, not only from the OL but with so many other areas! Definitely recommend
Fantastic course, and great delivery. It is hard work for sure but definitely leaves you feeling a little more knowledgeable and confident that you have got the goods to deliver S&C. The community also seems to extend beyond the S&C qualification which is always nice.
I’m working through my Level 4 qualification and thoroughly enjoying the content 😊 highly recommend the course and the very professional, helpful staff
Absolutely awesome course! Did it after having already been a PT for 7 years. Really developed my knowledge! Learnt so much and had a lot of fun on the practical and building connections. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to step up their coaching and train athletes or clients to a higher level.
I’ve been a level 3 PT for 23 years working with the general population, the Level 4 S and C Course has taken me to another level and turned my own training upside down in a really positive way. Thanks Ste, Chris and Brendan for your down to earth approach and unconditional support throughout the whole Course. I am proud to be a part of it and look forward to continuing my journey as part of the ECM group. Thanks again, chuffed to bits!
Excellent course! Great team with excellent online resources and very helpful mentorship. I have completed the online course to fit around my university schedule and although it would have been great to attend the workshops, I have to say the course is very well designed and practical. I really enjoyed myself.
Great course packed with lots of valuable information. I initially signed up pre-covid with the plan of attending the practical courses but living abroad and travel restrictions/social restrictions made that very difficult. Although I was unable to attend the practical workshops the videos are very detailed and provided a lot of valuable information. The team have thought of great ways to motivate and keep students on track to completing the course through Facebook groups, Accelerated Pass Programme and regular emails, etc. I really enjoyed the content and would recommend the course to others.
Great course with help whenever needed. Couldn’t recommend the workshop more, Chris is such a sound guy, very passionate and full of info and was so essential for not just passing the practical exam but also learning practical coaching skills.
The coaches and tutors were so helpful that it made asking for guidance feel easy to ask for rather than feel like I was highlighting myself as struggling in a certain part of the course. The customer service team were of the utmost professional standard and very timely in their replies. I most certainly will be recommending this course to all of my colleagues.
Great tutors that are always on hand at any given time to assist you along the way. Course is broken down extremely well, easy to follow and understand.
I have done a lot of fitness courses since 2006 and this course is in my top course providers. Great course, great support by all the staff from tutors, customer service and the customer support. I am so glad I have done my Level 4 Strength and conditioning coach course. Nothing but top class.
