New Personal Fitness Trainer program set to start at Dawn Training Centre

First class begins on April 28th

WILMINGTON (MARCH, 2009) – One out of every three American adults is now considered obese or overweight.* These numbers don’t lie. Take a look around and see for yourself the undeniable truth. Many Americans are reaching unhealthy weight levels and are seeking help from Certified Personal Fitness Trainers!

Because of the growing demand for Certified Personal Trainers throughout the state of Delaware, Dawn Training Centre has unveiled a new Personal Fitness Trainer program. In just eight months students learn the skills needed to have a rewarding job in the fitness field and help others change their life! Employment of fitness workers is expected to increase 27 percent over the 2006-2016** decade, much faster than the average for all occupations. These workers are expected to gain jobs because an increasing number of people are spending time and money on fitness, and more businesses are recognizing the benefits of health and fitness programs for their employees. At Dawn Training Centre, the goal is to prepare students for a career as a certified personal fitness trainer. DTC can equip students with the knowledge, training and hands-on skills that lead toward a successful career path.

What is a Certified Personal Trainer?
Certified Personal Trainers put their extensive knowledge and experience to work identifying each person’s lifestyle, fitness level and health concerns. Certified Personal Trainers have a growing number of employment options available to them. Many Certified Personal Trainers work in gyms or health clubs, but they aren’t limited to just these types of employment. Large corporations need to staff company fitness centers, and busy executives hire trainers to work with them on a one-on-one basis.

Prepare for the real world
The fitness industry directly affects the lives of every American. Being a successful Certified Personal Trainer requires much more than being good with weights and possessing knowledge of the muscles. That’s why Dawn’s new program goes a step further, providing training in a variety of areas to ensure students receive a well-rounded education.

One of the most exciting parts of the course is getting national certification during the week-long Boot Camp. Held in Las Vegas, NV, this Boot Camp is an excellent opportunity for students to use all of the knowledge gained during the course of the program. Led by top industry experts and celebrity instructors, such as Beth Horn, Jen Hendershott and Jay Cutler, this intense experience serves as the highlight of the Personal Fitness Trainer program.
