Student portal is exceptional
Student portal is exceptional. Easy to navigate, responsive.
My only suggestion is around the experience of a full-fee paying student versus discounted price students.
When all units are assessed and completed, the financial side should automatically be ticked off and processing of certificates should be in a rapid queue, rather than a queue in which all other students etc have to have their financial status confirmed. That "box" should be greenlit at commencement.
Thanks

Life changing experience
What an incredible experience!!
I was so lucky to have the best coach -Craig! Was supported from day one until my final assessment - entire class passed with flying colours and confidence in their skills.
I’ve learned so much over my practical sessions and gained lifelong friends and memories I’ll never forget ❤️
A massive thank you to Craig for being there every step of the way - couldn’t have asked for a better mentor 🙌

The Certificate III and IV in Fitness through NHFA is the benchmark for the entire fitness industry. The level of detailed content both in video format, theory assessments and practical sessions are second to none. For anyone thinking of undertaking this qualification, you really need to reach out to the NHFA

So far so good
So far, a great course! I’ve just completed my first practical session and it was fantastic. We had John, and Dave also made an appearance. They both took the time to help us, offering valuable advice on how to provide feedback to clients and sharing their knowledge and experience. They were incredibly welcoming and created a supportive learning environment.
The online coursework is very informative and covers a lot of valuable information. As a busy person, I found it a little challenging at times to fit everything in, but the content itself is excellent. The online videos are easy to follow and keep up with, which makes learning much more manageable. Looking forward to continuing the course!

I’m currently completing my Cert III & IV in Fitness with NHFA and honestly couldn’t be happier with my experience so far.
The course content is easy to follow, well-structured, and extremely informative. Even within the first couple of weeks, I’ve already learned so much that has improved my own training, exercise technique, and overall understanding of fitness and coaching.
The online videos and learning material are engaging and practical, making it easy to stay motivated and keep progressing through the course. The support from the NHFA team has also been fantastic.
As someone passionate about health and fitness, this course has given me more confidence and has made me even more excited about becoming qualified and helping others achieve their goals.
Highly recommend NHFA to anyone looking to start a career in the fitness industry.

I signed up little over 6 weeks ago
I signed up little over 6 weeks ago. Really enjoying the course content. Approaching week 3 of the face to face practical's at Goodlife on Saturdays. One of the reasons I took the course was due to face to face offer which I learn better with and this course delivers without disappointment. Finding the pace of the face to face sessions perfectly delivered. Joe delivers the sessions in a professional manner with his expertise in personal training shining humbly through his humor which makes the face to face sessions interactive and a great compliment to the theory sessions. Theory work is detailed and at times intense however so much support and encouragement. highly recommend taking this course.

Amazing online resource library
I actually completed my course in person 5 years ago and am now in the process of revisiting the abundance of resources provided on the online platform.
My life circumstances back in 2021 prevented me from being able to focus on the content as much as I would have liked, and while I still managed to attend the course and receive my certification - being able to revisit the content from a different stage of life has been a godsend.
I did really enjoy the course at the time and definitely felt supported every step of the way; I’m just really grateful to have access to all of that info that I had either forgotten in the years since, or simply wasn’t in the right headspace to absorb properly in the first place!

Highly recommend NHFA
I’ve only recently started my studies with NHFA but am already loving the course! I have received plenty of support and feedback during my theory studies and start my practical lessons this week! Can’t wait to get into the practical stuff!

This is my 3rd week into my prac and I love it! The coaches are great and so supportive. All the online content is super easy to navigate and understand. All the videos Dave has made are clear and interesting, which makes learning easier and more engaging.
The online video alone give me great motivation and the in person prac gives me feedback on the spot. I’ve been loving it and love that it’s helping me with my own gym/fitness journey!!

I completed my PT course through National Health & Fitness Academy and I’m now continuing with my nutrition course, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience.
The course content is practical, easy to follow, and actually prepares you for real-world coaching not just passing assessments. The support from the team has been solid the whole way through, always quick to help and genuinely invested in your progress.
What stood out most for me was how relevant everything is to working with real clients. It’s not just theory you’re learning things you can apply straight away.
If you’re looking to get into the fitness industry or level up your knowledge, I’d definitely recommend them.

NHFA was amazing
NHFA was amazing! The videos were set out well and easy to comprehend. I loved the practical hands on teaching style as well. I ended up securing a job before my certificate IV had been issued so I contacted the team and they managed to fast track it. 10/10 experience. Definitely recommend to anyone looking to study for a career in fitness

Great trainers, great experience
Was a super fun experience meeting all of the trainers that helped us become trainers ourselves🙏 trainers like Rylan made the course fun, relatable and easygoing while still maintaining a very stable level of professionalism, giving us as students a goal to strive for beyond a piece of paper that calls us trainers. Simple to follow and memorable👍

Garbage 🗑️
I'd put negative 5 stars if I could. Enjoy your free 1500 free money for doing absolutely nothing. Straight robbery. Also terrible course and would not recommend

Studying with the National Health & Fitness Academy has honestly been one of the best decisions I’ve made.
I came into this course later in life, and I was nervous about going back to study — but NHFA made the whole experience supportive, practical and empowering. The course content is clear, evidence-based and very relevant to real-world training. I especially appreciated how much focus was placed on understanding scope of practice, professionalism and client safety.
The practical components gave me real confidence working in a gym environment, and the support from the team has always been encouraging and responsive.
If you're considering a career in personal training and want education that builds both knowledge and confidence, I highly recommend NHFA.
