We’re honoured to share that OriGym has been shortlisted for ‘Education Facility of The Year’ at the 2024 National Fitness Awards. As one of the most prestigious ceremonies in our industry, receiving this acknowledgment is testament to the quality of training we provide.
What Are The National Fitness Awards?
The National Fitness Awards (NFAs) is an annual event, established to recognise and honour the ‘best fitness facilities, gym instructors, and health clubs across the country’.
The highly anticipated event brings together some of the most high profile fitness professionals from across the UK. The ceremony itself celebrates the dedication and contribution of the nominees to the wider industry.
On their website, the National Fitness Awards recognises their ceremony to be:
“A platform that not only showcases the best practices but also inspires others to raise the bar and strive for excellence. It’s a fantastic event that provides an opportunity for networking, learning, and building relationships with other professionals and industry experts”
Why Is OriGym Nominated For The NFA’s Education Facility Of The Year?
We’re proud to be one of 6 nominees within our category, representing the very best education providers in the fitness industry.
The nomination process began a few months ago, following a virtual submission where we were asked to provide information relating to our teaching standards and the resources available to our students.
Following this, a representative from the NFAs visited OriGym headquarters in Liverpool to assess our learning facilities.
Being placed on the NFA’s shortlist echoes our mission statement of ‘Transforming Lives Through Educational Excellence’ as we strive to provide students with the highest calibre of education.
But our dedication to transforming lives reaches far beyond our students and alumni. We want every graduate to be equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to better the lives of their clients/students too – helping to shape a fitter and healthier nation.
OriGym’s students are at the heart of everything we do as educators. So much so, that we purposely put our core values in place to uphold our own high standards:
We Innovate: We are committed to adding new resources and features across our in-person and virtual learning facilities. One way we do this is through monitoring technological advancements that can make our courses more accessible.
This helps to promote inclusivity and allows us to teach more students from a diverse range of backgrounds.
We Exceed: No other training provider in the UK offers the same amount of tutor support as OriGym. Our team can be reached 7-days a week, to ensure our students get the help they need as and when they need it.
This decision was made following feedback from our students, who noted that they’d like course support outside of traditional office hours. On top of this, OriGym has the highest number of 5 star reviews among fitness training providers, with over 5,800 across Trustpilot and Google.
We Care: We care about the success of our students and graduates, and regularly champion their achievements across our social media pages. This is done through celebrations posts for passed assessments and career highlights:
To demonstrate this care even further, we offer unlimited career support for all our graduates. This includes:
- Guaranteed Job Interviews
- CV Analysis
- CV Distribution to Local Employers
- Mock Interviews
- Exclusive Alumni Discounts
What Mike Wardle, OriGym’s Head of Education Had To Say About Being Shortlisted For a NFA:
OriGym has had a great 2024 so far, and being shortlisted for the National Fitness Awards is yet another example of why we’re the UK’s #1 Training Provider.
At the start of this year we were awarded with CIMSPA ‘Enhancing’ Status (their highest rating) and also went on to win ‘Training Provider of the Year’ at the 2024 British Fitness Awards.
