EREPS is the European Register of Exercise Professionals and is a fully independent register of instructors, trainers and teachers working in the European fitness industry and is internationally recognised.

If a Personal Trainer has an EREPS accreditation, this means that he has had (various) training courses in the field of Fitness and Training and his knowledge and skills have been tested. With a Personal Trainer with EREPS certification you have proven quality in the house!

Fitness Instructor (Level 3)

The role of a fitness or group fitness instructor is to build fitness participation of new and existing members through fitness experiences that meet their needs. An Instructor delivers fitness instruction to individuals with the use of equipment (Fitness Instructor) or to a group through fitness classes (Group Fitness Instructor). Both types of instructors have the same purpose of promoting and delivering safe and effective exercise but depending on the specific situation, some additional knowledge, skills, and competencies may be required.
 

Personal Trainer (Level 4)

A personal trainer’s role includes designing, implementing and evaluating exercise/physical activity programmes for a range of individual clients by collecting and analysing client information to ensure the effectiveness of personal exercise programmes. A personal trainer should also actively encourage potential clients/members to participate in and adhere to regular exercise/physical activity programmes, employing appropriate motivational strategies to achieve this and to assist them with behavioural change as a result.
