Review of CanFit Pro

I took the Canfitpro "Personal Trainer Specialist"...

I took the Canfitpro "Personal Trainer Specialist" course at Algonquin college on November 17-19, 2017. The two and a half day course was informative and enjoyable. The instructor, Eldon Uchida, was an excellent teacher He is very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and he genuinely wants you to pass. While Eldon provides you with a road map for success, the responsibility lies with the student to put in the effort and to carry out the necessary studying. There is a lot of material to cover.
I successfully wrote the three hour theory exam on December 17, 2017. It is part multiple choice and part case study. The next step was the practical exam, which I recently completed on January 25, 2018.
The practical exam was challenging and I learned a lot. Throughout the exam, Eldon took many photos with his I-phone and provided constructive feedback. There is nothing like immediate feedback for learning.
All in all, I would highly recommend this course. It is a great starting base of knowledge and a first step into the fitness industry.
