Discover how top gyms build lasting trainer pipelines and careers.
Gyms face chronic trainer turnover — nearly 80% of newly certified trainers exit within 1–2 years. This churn undermines workforce stability and discourages gyms from funding certifications. Correctional facilities, meanwhile, are increasingly using certifications as vocational training, offering a scalable opportunity for workforce transition programs.
NFPT, part of Summit’s portfolio, is the most affordable NCCA-accredited certification. Unlike competitors run by marketers, NFPT is trainer-led and field-driven, built on practical content and deep credibility in the industry. Together, Summit and NFPT provide gyms and institutions with an authentic, pragmatic workforce solution.

FITNESS INDUSTRY BIGGEST CHALLENGES
Trainer turnover remains high, member expectations are rising, and certification standards continue to evolve. Many training vendors focus only on compliance or content delivery. Summit delivers a full workforce development solution that builds trainer loyalty, performance, and client satisfaction.

Trainer turnover is rising
Open positions for qualified trainers are harder to fill, creating inconsistency in member experience and limiting growth.
