OPPORTUNITY ALERT | VIDA Fitness Personal Training Scholarship & Mentorship Program
The VIDA Fitness Personal Training Scholarship program is part of an initiative to increase diversity in personal training and support Black DC and Virginia residents in their pursuit of a career in fitness. We are awarding scholarships on a rolling basis. Eligible people who have demonstrated dedication, motivation, and interest in pursuing a career in the health and fitness-related fields are encouraged to apply.
We have partnered with National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) to offer the highest standard of education and certification in personal training to 20 candidates. Scholarship winners who complete this training will be qualified to sit for the NASM’s Certified Personal Training (CPT) exam and, if successful, earn the CPT credential.
In addition, following the successful completion of the CPT program, each scholarship recipient will be invited to VIDA for a personal training mentorship.
The 2020 program will be accepting scholarship applications on a rolling basis. Each month, applications will be reviewed and considered.
Candidates must be 18 years of age and be certified in CPR/AED before taking the exam.
