How can the training be funded?

You are an organisation (gym, club, association)

The training can be funded by your OPCO (the French training fund for your sector: Afdas for sport), according to current rates. The request must be made before the training starts. We send you the quote, the programme and the training agreement.

You are an employee

Talk to your employer, who can fund the training through its skills development plan.

You are paying yourself

Book and pay online in 2 minutes. You sign your training contract online and save your card. Nothing is charged during your 10-day legal withdrawal period. Then 30% is charged automatically, and the balance on the first day of training.

What you get

A certificate of completion listing the skills assessed. Our modules are professional development courses: they do not lead to a state diploma or a professional coaching card, and they do not change participants' legal right to coach.

Prerequisites

Injury prevention, Programming and Seniors modules: you coach a physical activity in a gym or club. To coach for payment in France, you must hold a professional coaching card (carte professionnelle d'éducateur sportif) or be training for a qualification that leads to it.

Member retention module: you have management responsibilities in a gym or club. No diploma required.

Accessibility

Our courses are open to people with disabilities. Please contact our disability officer Mehdi O. (mehdi.o@thallium-academy.com) before registering so we can arrange any adjustments.

Frequently asked questions

How many participants per open session?

Max. 12 participants. The session is confirmed once 5 people are registered, at the latest 10 days before the date.

How does the Gym Pack work?

You get 5 in-house days to use within 12 months, with the modules of your choice. The Programming module counts as 2 days. Dates are set with you.

Can I register just one coach?

Yes, in an open session. From 5 people in the same organisation, an in-house session is usually better value.

Can the training be funded?

Yes, by your OPCO if you are an organisation, or by your employer if you are an employee. We provide all the documents you need.

Can I book and pay online myself?

Yes. Choose your session, sign your contract online and save your card: it takes 2 minutes. By law, nothing is charged during your 10-day withdrawal period. After that, 30% is charged automatically, and the balance on the first day of training.

Is first aid training included?

No. The Injury prevention module covers what to do in case of an incident, but it does not replace a certified first aid course (PSC1), delivered by approved organisations.

Can you adapt the content to my gym?

Yes, for in-house sessions: we adapt the examples and case studies to your members and your equipment.
