Special thanks to Andrew Richardson for being a fantastic lecturer and inspiration". Michelle Newitt

"I have completed and handed in my Cert 4 practical assessment book. I guess I will find out in 2 weeks or so as to how well I went. I wanted to take the opportunity to thank you both for your passion, enthusiasm and professional you both showed in all the lectures that I had the pleasure of attending and also your continued support and patience in answering all the questions that I am my fellow students hurled at you guys during our further studies. As a professional athlete from a young age I haven't had to do any study but my 2 experiences at the FIA have been great. The way you guys portray your knowledge and explain sometimes very hard to understand things takes great talent. I have been recommending you guys to everyone I know who has a slight interest in pursuing a career in fitness. I am not sure what I will end up doing with my personal training qualifications but know I am better for the experience".

Wishing you guys the best of luck in future endeavors.

Thanks again.

"The services and quality of education are excellent. Lecturers and Tutors are understanding and supportive of the difficulties that international students deal with. Your office staff are the best, so helpful! Email and the Internet makes FIA easily accessible". Thanks again.
Naomi Takamura. Japan.

I found a lot strength and motivation from Paul, Wendy, Andrew and Gail as lecturers. They were very informative, motivating and fun. The content of these lectures has really changed my training business for the better (and it's only half way through).
Lynne Beard

Most all aspects, the FIA are a "no nonsense" group, that give relevant info with NO FLUFF! I am enjoying the course and all my fears of the Diploma being a possible "red herring" in the fitness industry are well and truly put to rest. I am happy all round! Good job, well done guys.
Doug Scott

"I have enjoyed all aspects of the course so far. I find it particularly good as I work full time in the fitness industry and this course allows me to study from home. The relevance of this course to industry is second to none. I have done many other courses and struggled to apply them in real life situations". Well Done!
Tanya Hollier.

"Aspects of this course I have enjoyed include: The provision of relevant information and tasks (many courses nowadays take awhile to get to the point) and being able to apply previous knowledge and experiences to complete tasks. Keeping up to date with studies and application to the fitness industry and developing a stronger basic and background knowledge in order to help clients in their goals."
