“The Training room”

I am currently studying for a level 2 and level 3 personal training course and my tutor Claire always has the time to reply to my messages fast and with helpful and relevant information. The content that is supplied on the website is also in some ways applicable to real life even in the course I'm doing, which it has in-depth and interesting content about the subject as well that will hopefully allow me to progress into a proper career.

“Dishonest marketing”

Claire H.
1/20/21

They were advertising on a job vacancy site recruiting for a trainee physical trainer near to where I lived. The webpage said nothing more about the job and asked for my name, phone, email and I booked in a call for a call back. Turns out there is no such job. The fast talking salesman was actually just wanting me to buy a course from them. Incredibly dishonest marketing.

As part of the over 60 demographic, commencing a fitness course as a senior citizen during the Covid19 pandemic was always going to be a challenge... thanks to the skill and professionalism of my tutor Claire Smith at TTR however, I have been able to gain my Level 3 Personal Trainer qualification. She is a credit to both TTR and the Health & Fitness industry generally, with her experience and empathy shining through constantly.

The course has given me loads of information so far and everything is laid out in a way that is easy to understand! My tutor Claire has been brilliant! She is quick to respond to emails when help is needed and you can tell she is passionate about what she does! :) would recommend the training room to friends and family due to my own personal pleasant experience with you guys!

A great course provider used for my Level 3 Certificate in Supporting Teaching and Learning in Schools. My tutor was extremely supportive, particularly through the challenges of getting my course done whilst in full time employment and Covid-19 restrictions, and her feedback was always constructive. I have enjoyed completing this course and have already committed to more education units to top up my knowledge base.

Absolutely LOVED this course. Had the best tutor in the world Luke. He explained things so simply and made the second language of anatomy&physiology so much easier to understand. I will be pushing any friends of mine interested to go through this company because it's organised, easy to follow and jam packed of everything needed to know to be successful. Very excited to get started now into looking for a job in my home town of Nottingham :)

I am near completion on my TQUK level 3 course, and I have completed my 50 hour placement period along with my CV being full reviewed and checked before it being sent off to corporate partners.
So far everyone on this course has been extremely helpful in my kick starting my career, the tutors and career support advisors have been great amazing at guiding me into what specific routes to go down!

Hoping to hear back from the corporate partners soon!

Tip for consumers:
I’d advise caution as they are dishonestly saying they have a job vacancy when there is no job and they want you to buy a course from them.

Hi Claire,

Thank you for your feedback regarding The Training Room.

We do not appear to have any records of you being a student of ours. The comments you have made regarding the advert you had seen do not appear to be entirely true. All of the adverts The Training Room have do provide details of roles available once a training course had been completed and give the option for any applicant to provide their details and to receive further information about the courses which then lead to the jobs available.

Kind regards,
The Training Room

The sign up was quick and efficient. The course itself was very intense, but if you focus it is possible. Lyndsey was our tutor and she was very friendly. When we asked for revision help, she found time during the day to try go through some of it with us. The job support team got me an interview with a gym, although I'm not sure if I'll be taking it. Would have been helpful to get a bit more time in the gym doing practical work, but understand that there is a small time window.

I enrolled with the Training Room to gain my Level 3 PT via the online learning. Luke my tutor was very good and supported me through out my course. I had 3 years to finish the course which really help as I had a car accident 6 months in to it which held me back for over a year and most other providers only give you 2 years.
I really did enjoying attending the CPD course as they was fun and Nick at the London Academy made me feel at ease when doing my exams.

I really enjoyed the Level 3 PT course, it flowed nicely on from the L2 course. The course has a good balance of sports science and behaviour change content, which helps to get a good understanding of the different challenges a PT has with a variety of client goals. Claire Smith is always on hand to help when required, and offers good feedback on each module.

Theirs certificates are waste of time and money, anyone in their rightful mind would benefit more from doing a proper HND, HNC, Cisco certificates or any other. Even self-thought portfolio will give you more than a marking people without a clue regarding software engineering or cyber security.
If you do decide to accept their call they will attempt to scam you for over £2,000 course they can't even answer technical question about and start insulting you and your personal abilities because you don't find their product appropriate. Pure scam company.

I signed up for teaching assistant course level 3 in 2019, but the login they gave me didn't work, when I rang, I was told to wait for another. Despite the fact that I routinely checked in and kept asking if I could actually access my course, I was fobbed off again and again and now I'm stuck paying their £1300 loan for a course that I have yet to even see.

The support I received from my tutor Luke was outstanding. He was prompt and very detailed when replying to queries regarding my coursework or assessments. Nothing was too much trouble! I have really enjoyed doing the course and the extra CPD courses that were also included. I don't want my learning to stop here, no doubt I will use the training room again for further education in the future.
A massive thank you to Luke for all of your help, patience and support, it was greatly appreciated.

After finishing my first course through The Training Room (Level 3 Certificate in Supporting Teaching and Learning) I still wasn't having much sucess reaching out to my assigned Career Support Officers (CSO). I felt like I was chasing my tail and not getting anywhere. My tutor gave me the name of another CSO, Beth. Straight away, she responded in a timely manner to my e-mails, and was more than helpful. In less than a week, she has reviewed my CV, and passed it onto Corporate Partners, so I can be contacted for any suitable roles in my local area. I can't thank her enough for all her support.
My tutor also has been a great support, responding to my emails in a timely manner, and giving me guidance, to lead me to the right areas.

Very detailed course covering all areas related to exercise, there is a lot to learn here. Don't let this put you off though, it is fun and best to take it module by module and every module you complete is a step towards finishing it. Claire Smith, online tutor, also very knowledgable and will guide you through each step. You will also learn about anatomy and nutrition, in some detail. I've done most the course but still have few things to do and am looking forward to finishing it, hopefully this year.

My course was fantastic and so detailed, I've learned so much with the training room and feel like I can apply my knowledge now. I've thoroughly enjoyed it and I also feel like I have a new sense of appreciation for what the body can do and the processes to achieve certain goals with health/body. The tutors and staff are excellent and really go above and beyond to help and support you in any way. My tutors Luke Crossley (previously Dan Riley) both are really passionate, dedicated and highly skilled. They are always there to answer any questions swiftly and they are also extremely happy to help even after the course has finished! I would 100% recommend this course as it is abundant in quality! Thankyou to all :)

Did this course full time and whilst a little confused over information sent pre course, once the course was underway it all made perfect sense. Big recognition to tutor on this "Hasit Jethwa" who was great at guiding us through the various stages and coaching us in the gym environment. It is intense and if you are not used to studying then clear your diaries as its 6+ weeks of intense work but massively rewarding to qualify Level 2 and 3 Gym Instructor and Personal Trainer.

I think its time to all come together and sign some sort of a petition to get this company shut down. Constantly I see them mistreating, misleading and misrepresenting people. 2021 is a new year, this company should be closed down. Its so easy for companies such as The Training Room to lie about what is included, free extras etc and then refuse them to you once you have signed up.

I completed my fast track course in Hatfield February 2020 with the help and guidance from my tutor Daniel Reilly. This course was absolutely brilliant. Daniel brings a wealth of practical knowledge and experience to each session, every lesson was very interesting. Explanation is amazing! Would definitely recommend it to anyone having trouble in understanding ( English is my second language). Their customer service is fantastic. ( friendly and helpful) also when you have mess in your life
Honestly great feedback! Very constructive sessions. Thanks so much Daniel!
