"When I first came to PFI, I was unsure of what to expect. After all, I had recently earned an Associate of Occupational Studies as an Exercise Specialist. I didn't think that PFI could show me or prepare me any more for the NSCA-CPT or my career in one week than I had already been prepared in over a year and a half. Boy, was I wrong! The team at PFI was more than qualified and showed a level of professionalism greater than I had ever experienced in my life. They never left anyone behind and made sure that our lectures were clear, open for discussion and, most importantly, pertinent. I was never taught a bunch of mumbo jumbo that I didn't need. In our labs, we learned what it was like to be the trainee, not the trainer. It helped me to realize what it was like to be on the other side of the fence. Overall, Professional Fitness Institute® is an AAA program that I would strongly recommend to anyone wanting to break into the fitness field and be a step ahead of the rest. I wholeheartedly believe in the PFI program, and anyone who takes up the challenge will realize how difficult it is to leave once you are there. Since completing boot camp, I couldn't have been more motivated, more confident in my ability, more excited, or had greater opportunity! PFI will forever be a part of me and my career. Thanks a million, PFI – I'll see you at the top!"

“Thank you all for all of your help, guidance, support and preparation for my NSCA Personal Trainer exam. All the hard work, long hours and commitment to my dream have finally paid off. I just received my exam score and passed with a 92 and earned my NSCA-Certified Personal Trainer certification. I can't thank you all enough for setting aside the time to help me in my journey of becoming a personal trainer. It is an honor to be recognized for my hard work, and receiving this certification motivates me to continue to strive for excellence. All of your guidance and training has made a profound impact on my life, and I am truly grateful. I look forward to what the future holds. Thank you all once again.”

“My name is Thomas Dunbar, and I graduated in October of 2006. I am currently employed as the Fitness Manager of 24 Hour Fitness in Lee's Summit, Mo. I have completed two additional certifications since graduation: NASM CPT certification and the NASM PES. There is no doubt in my mind that Pinnacle Career Institute supplied me with the ground I needed to walk on to be the best. Now I am running! Thank you.”

“I had an extremely enriching experience at PFI. The faculty is very caring, well-educated and experienced in the field. I will use everything I learned here both with myself and clients for a long time to come. It's also great that even though I've graduated, I can still use the school as a resource, whether it's for job placement, advice or anything else that may come up now that I'm out here in the field.”

– Chris White
PFI Boot Camp Participant

“I recommend this school to anyone that is interested in getting into the professional fitness industry. The staff is helpful; teachers are knowledgeable and are willing to do what it takes to see you through. People get excited to hear that you attend a school such as this and want you to train them – it's great! The knowledge you gain here will help you effectively help others to change their lives and possibly save one. The ticket to the future is always open – you just have to decide where you want to go.”

"Our partnership with the Professional Fitness Institute has opened doors for a student population that we were not targeting. The Personal Fitness Trainer program, and the Boot Camp, have been well received in our major markets with positive results and impact. The staff at PFI are responsive and effective in their role as a partner with our schools."
