Where a fitness instructor can go next

5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a fitness instructor already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.

Fitness instructors build fitness participation of new and existing members through fitness experiences that meet their needs. They deliver fitness instruction to individuals, with the use of equipment, or to a group, through fitness classes. Both individual and group instructors have the purpose of promoting and delivering safe and effective exercise. Depending on the specific situation, some additional knowledge, skills and competences may be required.

How these figures were compiled

Coverage is the share of the target role’s weighted skill requirement a fitness instructor already meets, counting required skills in full and supplementary ones at 0.35. It is directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. Every entry above opens the full comparison for that move: what carries over, what is missing, and where to start. The full method.
