Personal Trainer Prep Course

Every semester, we offer a 10-week training course that teaches students the knowledge and skills to become personal trainers.  Candidates must have experience in resistance training, an interest in exercise science, and a passion for people.  Significant out-of-class practice is required.  If you are interested in applying to join this class, please download this Microsoft Word document.  Class enrollment is limited to five so don’t wait; apply today.  Auditions to become a SMU Personal Trainer may be held at the end of the course, depending on the needs of the SMU Personal Training program at that time.  Employment opportunities are contingent on passing the ACSM, NSCA, NASM, ACE, AFAA, or Cooper Institute trainer certification.
