Welcome!

Do you want to help people reach their goals? So do we — great to meet you! Welcome to the personal training program at DVC.

The flexibility of our program allows you to customize your education while getting equipped with the skills and training to get employed as a certified personal trainer.

You'll learn how to design exercise programs for clients and how to teach proper exercise technique. Both within the classroom and through internship experience, you will explore professional aspects of personal training, fitness assessments, sports psychology, nutrition, and first aid/CPR.

Did we mention that our students who take the National Academy of Sports Medicine certification exam have a 100% pass rate? At DVC, you will get the support and guidance needed to take those first steps toward getting started in the fitness industry.

Come experience a hands-on learning experience in our newly renovated gym, where you’ll work with clients in a professional setting.

If you have any questions, please contact us and we’d be happy to answer them.

Looking forward to meeting you!
