The Only Nationally Accredited Personal Fitness Trainer Program
in the State of Texas
Our goal is to produce Personal Trainers who are knowledgeable in both the concepts of fitness and health as well as skilled in the application of training methods on a healthy individual.
Pursue an education offered with a balanced format of instruction in the areas of exercise science, exercise physiology, and fitness and exercise testing, as well as practical instruction emphasizing “hands-on” labs taught by qualified faculty in a collaborative environment. Coupled with a summer internship (for the Personal Fitness Trainer Certificate and the Exercise Science AAS Degree) there is no more thorough way to enter the profession of a Personal Fitness Trainer!
ACC’s Exercise Science Program offers an educational avenue for individuals interested in a career in the fitness industry as a personal fitness trainer. The curriculum integrates practical learning skills with current exercise related principles. Graduates can enter the workforce as an employee with the practical, educational and interpersonal skills needed to function as a personal fitness trainer. Why Exercise Science?
Seats available for non-exercise science majors in FITT 1401 Fitness and Exercise Testing and FITT 2331 Group Exercise Instruction.
