Personal Trainer Courses (Part-time)

    Hi all, just looking for some advise on potentially getting a Personal Trainer qualification. I work full time (9-5 mostly) but would be happy to commit weekend days or evenings to get such a qualification if it was worth my while. I'm in the gym most weeknights and on weekend days anyhow so I would see the time commitment as most likely doable.

    Basic questions on this are:
    1) Are there any Personal Trainer Courses out there that could be done on a part-time basis (i.e. while working a full time day job) and if so how much would this cost?

    2) Do you need to do a course to become a PT? I always assumed that you do and that all good PTs would have qualifications but don't know this as a sure fact.

    3) Is there a decent market out there for people doing PT work part-time, outside of office hours? I know obviously reputation comes into it but that is something to be built as in everyone has to start with little-no reputation (obvious exception of well known sports people, I am not one of them:D).
