Argyle Community Trust is passionate about learner progress and this academic year was the start of a brand-new extension year to our successful 2-year BTEC Football Development and Education programme based at Carn Brea Leisure Centre in Pool, Cornwall.
In partnership with The Cornwall College Group, we offered our Cornwall based scholars the opportunity to enrol for a third year and gain additional industry-recognised qualifications that are highly regarded and will significantly assist learners as they transition into higher education or employment.
Having completed the Level 2 Certificate in Fitness Instructing during semester 1, students will now embark on the YMCA Level 3 Diploma in Personal Training, Outdoor Exercise and Sports Conditioning. Throughout the programme, our third-year students have taken on the role of a personal trainer working directly with our BTEC students gaining valuable hands-on experience and also benefiting our football scholars in fitness, strength and conditioning and individual training plans.
We have 2 upcoming January open evenings as part of our recruitment for September 2022:
Tuesday 18th January 2022 start time: 7 pm
Thursday 20th January 2022 start time: 7 pm
The Hub Club, Carn Brea Leisure Centre, Pool TR15 3QS
If you are currently in Year 11 and may be interested in finding out more about the courses above, or to book a place at one of our open evenings, please email Programme Manager Mike Foley mike.foley@pafc.co.uk.
