Can I hire a personal trainer that is certified even if Im not?
Can I hire personal trainers that are certified to work in my personal training studio even if Im still not certified? I got my personal training education at National Personal Training Institue Orlando Florida, unfortunately even though this is a very structure school as is theories and hands on I don’t think insurance company recognize them as the other agencies. Im working toward my certification with ACE, however I have a rented location with equipment as an opportunity open up for me. I understand that liability is a big issue that is why I would not train until I get certified, however I have the location and everything in place. Your thoughts on this. Thanks
You most certainly can. Just be sure you have liability insurance for the studio and the instructor(s) you hire are insured as well. If you “hire” them, you can provide the insurance, if you bring them in as a subcontractor, you can require them to provide their own insurance (what we do with outside trainers and group X instructors.)
Good Luck!
