Frequently Asked Questions

I have already completed the ClubJoy instructor training. Do I need to complete the full course again if I want to sign up for another ClubJoy program?

If you have a ClubJoy instructor diploma and have previously completed the GENERAL TRAINING, you can enroll straight into the PROGRAM TRAINING of your liking. There is no need to repeat the GENERAL training each time you want to complete a course.

I have already completed a similar training course with another provider of group fitness programmes. Do I still have to take the GENERAL TRAINING BEFORE THE PROGRAM TRAINING?

We always advise you to do the GENERAL TRAINING at least once to ensure you have a good foundation, but if you have done a similar course with another supplier, you can consider moving straight on to the ClubJoy PROGAMMA TRAINING without completing the 2-day GENERAL TRAINING first. To find out if you qualify, please contact the ClubJoy office on 010-7420107 or by e-mail: info@clubjoy.nl.

 

What should do if I did not pass the exam?

If you do not pass the exam, you have the option to retake the exam on the next training day. Please check the schedule for the details and contact the ClubJoy office to register. The price of re-examination is €49 (excluding VAT).

How long does the exam day last?

The duration of the exam depends on the number of exam candidates. You will be participating in the exam of the other candidates just as they will be participants in yours.
