    Hi all,

    I am interested in becoming a personal trainer but I'm getting overwhelmed by the amount of different accreditations awarded by the different colleges and training courses.

    Is anyone aware of what the difference between the accreditations such as ITEC, QQI, ACE, FETAC, diploma in personal training are? And which are the best ones?

    Thank you!

    Hi smurfette, I know this was over a year ago but would be interested to see if you ever decided on a course or got an answer to your question?

    I am currently looking into doing a course myself.

    QQI is the national framework for qualifications so they should all fall somewhere on that.
    Fetac is the further training and awards council.
    ITEC is an internationally recognised beauty qualification body.
