About The Council of Personal Trainers

Why we are here

The CoPT is for Personal Trainer's and our industry. Currently anyone can be a PT, qualifications are not required and the industry is unregulated and has no requirement for Continued Professional Development (CPD). This in turn undermines the professionalism of our industry.

For Personal Trainers

Personal Trainers are at the forefront of the health and fitness industry and need to be, not only qualified but committed to continual development in this ever-changing industry and be part of a professional body that raises the professional profile of Personal Trainers.

Your Education

Continued Professional Development is a key part of being at the forefront of the latest movements and techniques to best support your clients and their goals.

We partner with the leading course providers in the UK and offer exclusive discounts for members of CoPT.
