Futurefit Reviews

I did the advanced diploma in nutrition with Future Fit I thought it was really well done However there were often delays I had a 2 week delay getting into a section of the course a 9 week delay getting an exam back to me and a 3 week delay letting me know that I had passed my RSPH I received compensation once for all the delays which was a masterclass on food allergies which I was really excited to take part in However you couldn t understand most of what the instructor was saying because of a heavy accent I think subtitles would have been helpful In short the courses are good however you have to stay on top of your own timing and dates I was super happy with FutureFit to start and really loved my tutors I am just a little disappointed with the long delays in responding to me and never actually telling me what was going on I always had to be the first to reach out

I m currently studying regularly and gaining CIMSPA points throughout the year I don t feel that I really need the service nor does it do what I expected when I signed up

The course was challenging especially the theory part as there is lots of information and new vocabulary to learn As a foreigner I found that super hard I thought the practical part was good and the teachers were nice and knowledgable I however felt that there was not much help and support for after completeimg the course I struggled to get myself established I think the course should focus a bit more on how to get their students to actually getting starting and guide them more after I felt that once people pass and complete the course maybe there should be a follow up review on how one is doing I got to get my portfolio back 2 years after completing my course which I believe is far too long P s I got my diploma I think after about half years which is long too

Everyone I spoke to was helpful and friendly however the e-learning course I did seemed old basic and didn t really show much in the way of practical application which is what I wanted

Having done the level 3 qualification with associated extra courses I have had a mixed experience The booking system for courses is ridiculous - you request your date and then they get back to you Why not have it so you can book on if there is space or mark the course as full The practical side of the course is well led and useful the online learning platform is outdated and boring in the extreme A significant amount is also not relevant So practical side great booking system ridiculous and online content mind numbing Took much less never to complete than I wanted as courses so booked up as well they need to offer more dates or be more honest about timeframe it takes to complete

If feel that the support I got throughout was great but I don t feel that it was fairly sold to me and I wasn t told I had deadlines and was under the impressions as it was Home learning I could do it when I wanted So as this was the case I rushed it all to pass and didn t absorb all thit learning which hasn t really resulted in my getting anything from it other than a certificate to say I ve completed it When I was working full time running a business and trying to keep up with things personally I felt like I was under a lot of pressure and I ve come to a stressed point in life that I was doing too much and partly I just feel like I ve wasted my money

I enjoyed some of the content of the course what would have made it really great would be to have more interactive phone sessions where you could ask questions and really test learning There was limited feedback from assignments and no interaction throughout the course

The weekend workshops for Pilates were fantastic Well-structured and interesting However the ongoing support when studying at home was not at all like the brochure suggested You are completely on your own so you need to be very motivated and completely self-sufficient to get through the course

Overall my experience of the course was good the assessment day was well structured and the assessor was very good However in the lead up to the day the lack of communication between Future Fit and the students was not very good The details for the practical assessment were only listed on the portal which isn t easy to operate and I also had problems accessing it to book my course A confirmation e-mail with the details of the assessment and a list of things you need to bring to the assessment would have been really helpful and would have saved a lot of stress thinking we may turn up without something we would need

The online section was poor and unreliable I had lots of problems with crashing issues The classes were also not that good as you did not get enough time as a one on one as there were too many In the class groups I don t think I would recommend to anyone interested in fitness industry Also one of the instructors I felt was not too enthusiastic and felt a bit stale and didn t engage the group very well or explain things very well On whole not the best experience
