What Do Our Past Students Have to Say?

I completed cert 3 in Fitness with Women's Fitness Education. I wasn't sure whether I was making the right choice, but after talking to Dani from WFE, I decided to go ahead. The best decision I ever made! 100% flexible study option means I could juggle my study in between full time work and family life. I completed the course in 3 months and now continuing with Cert 4. I found the facilitators/educators very supportive and responsive to queries. 100% recommend it!

I have just completed my Cert III with women fitness education & I must said it was a great experience. I learnt so much that I can now take on my journey through the fitness industry.

I would highly recommend women’s fitness education to all women looking to study fitness

JULIE K.

I recently completed my Cert 3 in Fitness with WFE and thoroughly enjoyed my learning experience. The education platform was so easy to use and the assessors were quick to respond to any questions I had. I learnt so much and was able to step straight into a role as a group fitness instructor. I’m now moving onto my Cert 4 in fitness with WFE and I can’t wait! If you’re interested in a career in fitness, I can’t recommend WFE enough. All of the support and extra educational opportunities along the way just made it a fantastic experience.

SHAUNA NICOLE

WFE has been a fantastic supportive group. I have just completed my cert 3 in Fitness with them and now moving onto my cert 4. The online system and education team they use is easy to navigate and provides fantastic support through each subject and module. My most favourite part of WFE so far is the monthly webinars they hold. Each month is a really unique and yet important topic that has been a source of great education and awareness for me. I appreciate that if I can't get on to it live I have the ability to watch the recording at any time. I highly recommend if you are looking to train women at all throughout your fitness professional career that you chose Women's Fitness Education.

LARA N.

I have just completed my Cert 3 with WFE and am moving onto my Cert 4 happily! The course was so easy to understand and access at all times. Assessors where so helpful, including Mish and Dani who are always reaching out and assisting with additional webinars for further knowledge. I would recommend WFE for anyone wanting to focus on female fitness, busy mums, full time workers or anyone trying to get the most out of something in their spare time. Self paced and so easy to take your time or smash it out as you please! Can’t recommend them enough!

CLARA W.

I recently finished two courses and I have started my third on the subject of women’s health training and specifically pelvic floor, understanding the menstrual cycle as it relates to training and pre and postnatal. And I have to say I have loved the content. I have gained so much already, absolutely sponging up the knowledge. Love it. And it hasn’t just helped with the content provided, but also given me the connections for further study by providing links to the top providers in the field and that has been incredibly helpful. Can’t recommend enough. It has truly opened my eyes to where we are failing women and how we can be the change to fix it. Thanks so much fitness Ed!
