Training in Fitness, Sports and Nutrition

Aging baby-boomers concerned with staying healthy, fit, and independent are largely responsible for the thriving fitness and nutrition industry. Jobs for professionals in fitness and nutrition are expected to grow faster than average in the next seven years. Positions in the field include:

  • Personal trainer
  • Group exercise instructor
  • Fitness director
  • Clinical dietician
  • Community dietician
  • Management dietician
  • Consultant dietician

Although no diploma program can guarantee either job placement or future earnings, average salaries for fitness workers are approximately $25,000 and about $44,000 for dieticians.

  • Nutrition
  • Institution management
