Why ours is different

Cheap CPD is cheap for a reason.

You can buy a CPD certificate for £29, less than a session costs your client. Most of it is a slide deck, a multiple choice quiz and a PDF at the end. Nobody marks it, nobody knows whether you understood it, and no employer treats it as evidence you can do the thing. Ours cost more because someone reads your work.

The usual approach

  • A slide deck and a multiple choice quiz
  • Marked by nobody, or by software
  • No tutor, no questions, no feedback
  • A PDF certificate the same day, whether you understood it or not
  • Written once, years ago, and never revisited
  • Fine if you need a certificate. No use if you need the skill

The Create way

  • Written and taught by people who do this work with real clients
  • Your work is read and marked by a tutor marked by a person
  • Ask a question, get an answer the same working day
  • Resubmit as many times as you need no extra cost
  • Built to be used on Monday, not filed
SUPPORT BUILT AROUND YOU

You are never studying alone.

Marking within 72 hours

Useful feedback, fast, so you are not waiting a fortnight to find out whether you got it right.

Same working day replies

Ask a tutor a question and hear back the same working day, not the same week.

Free resubmissions

Resubmit for as long as you have course access, at no extra cost. Nobody is passed before they are ready.

Tutors who still do the job

The people marking your work are coaching clients this week, not teaching from memory.

Study at your own pace

No cohort to keep up with and no set start date. Twelve months of access from the day you enrol.

Support seven days a week

Most people study around a job, which means evenings and weekends. Somebody is there then.

Why we are able to offer it

98.8% of learners rate the course as satisfactory or better. A qualification people do not rate is not worth selling, so if the course does not do what we say it does, we should not be keeping your money.

Right one · before you start 14 days to change your mind.

You have 14 days from the day you enrol to change your mind, for any reason. Fully online courses keep the full 14 days. Where a course includes in-person elements and you attend one inside the 14 days, the cancellation right ends at that point.

Right two · after you finish The Cast Iron Guarantee.

A separate promise that applies once you have completed the course. It is not a cancellation right and it is not affected by the 14 day period. Both exist, and you do not have to choose between them.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Questions people ask before enrolling.

Do I need boxing experience for the Padwork course?

No boxing experience is needed. The course teaches you how to coach padwork in a fitness setting — focusing on safe, effective delivery, pad-holding technique and session design rather than competitive boxing. It suits qualified trainers and gym instructors.

Do I need experience to take the Studio Cycling course?

No experience needed. The course guides you from the basics through to confident session delivery — covering class structure, music/cadence, coaching cues, safety and more. It’s suitable for newcomers and existing instructors alike.

Do I need my own equipment?

Yes, your own pads and gloves are needed.

Do I need prior kettlebell experience for this course?

A basic understanding of training and coaching is recommended, but you don’t need prior kettlebell-specific experience. The course guides you through technique, programming and how to structure and deliver kettlebell sessions safely. It’s aimed at existing fitness professionals.

Do I need prior nutrition knowledge for this course?

A basic understanding of coaching is helpful, but no specialist nutrition background is required. The course guides you through how nutrition and training apply specifically across the menstrual cycle. It’s designed for fitness professionals.

Do I need prior qualifications for the Pre and Post Natal course?

Yes. You should already be a qualified fitness professional or personal trainer – the Level 3 Personal Trainer qualification is a pre-requisite. This course builds on existing coaching knowledge to help you safely support pre and postnatal clients.

How is the GP Exercise Referral practical assessment done?

You’ll work with a real client, plan and deliver sessions and submit video evidence for assessment, which is marked by our tutors. Comprehensive feedback is provided so you can resubmit if needed.

How long does it take and is it online?

It’s a self-paced online CPD course. It can be completed within a week.
