The Level 2 Sports Coaching and Gym Instructing course is a one-year, full-time programme designed for learners who want to develop the essential knowledge, confidence and practical ability to begin a career in the sport, fitness or coaching industries. It provides the perfect foundation for progression to Level 3 qualifications or entry-level employment.
You’ll cover the fundamentals of anatomy and physiology, health and safety in a fitness environment, principles of coaching, communication, and effective session delivery. The programme combines classroom study with hands-on gym instruction and coaching practice at Robin Park’s professional facilities.
Assessment is through a series of practical observations, written assignments and projects that mirror real workplace scenarios rather than relying solely on exams.
This course is equivalent to GCSE-level study and is designed to help you take the next step toward a career in sport, fitness or physical activity. Many learners progress to the Level 3 Diploma in Sports Coaching and Fitness or start work as a Gym Instructor or Assistant Coach.
Learners benefit from the professional setting and guidance of Wigan Warriors College coaching staff, ensuring that training and teaching take place in a motivating, high-performance environment.
