Personal Trainer: Those who provide fitness advice and/or assist in the training of others in a one-to-one or group situation in a health/fitness center regardless of payment exchange or not.

Personal Training: The act of any one and or/all of the following: screening and evaluating health and fitness, designing exercise programs, instructing in exercise techniques, supervising and monitoring others, and/or responding to questions and problems that arise.

Campus Recreation requires all trainers in departmental facilities or in association with departmental programming to maintain certification through a nationally recognized organization and meet specific academic requirements essential for quality personal training.

Campus Recreation prohibits unauthorized personal training for the following reasons:

  1. The department cannot adequately control the quality of training from individuals that are not employed by the Campus Recreation. Non-Campus Recreation staff may not have adequate academic preparation, ability, training, or experience to correctly train clients. In addition, our facilities are limited in their ability to regulate these individuals in order to prevent or correct potential erroneous information or technique passed on to its clients.
  2.  Even if a person maintains a nationally recognized training certification, if that person is not employed by the department, that person has not been trained by Campus Recreation Department on the policies, rules, guidelines, procedures, or standards that are specific to our facilities and equipment.
    - A legal liability arises for the department if we are aware of outside trainers working within our facilities and an unauthorized trainer is involved in the injury of a patron.
  3. Profiting from the use of university property -- i.e. Campus Recreation equipment or facilities -- without consent is illegal.

 

Patrons interested in receiving personal training services are encouraged to discuss options with a Campus Recreation staff member or seek opportunities outside of Campus Recreation facilities.
