TESTIMONIALS

Anthony O’Donoghue NCEF Graduate in the following
Certificate in Exercise & Health Fitness, Stage 2 Personal Training, Stage 2 Team Sports Fitness and Stage 2 Health Related Activity for Children

The NCEF Programmes of Study have benefited my career and personal development. I found each module interesting and brilliant. The various tutors bring with them an array of knowledge from a variety of backgrounds and settings.
I regularly check the NCEF website and read the National Fitness News to keep updated on recent trends and courses. It’s a non-stop learning industry we are in and I am delighted to be a part of it. The NCEF has made me more confident, innovative, creative and positive and I look forward to learning more. May I thank all the staff in the NCEF Head Office for their hard work and behind the scenes efforts in making the fitness courses so enjoyable.

Eilish Brophy, NCEF Graduate in the follwing
Diploma in Exercise and Health Fitness

As an NCEF Level 1 Instructor and Level 2 Personal Trainer, I applied for entry onto the NCEF Diploma through the Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL). The Diploma provided an enjoyable and rewarding pathway to further education and employment. I would highly recommend the courses to any person who has an interest in the health and fitness industry.
