ACFB’s History
ACFB’s founder Robert Young, had a dream of opening a college that not only offered a friendly and professional environment, but also one that worked to provide the best possible training for every student to reach and achieve their goals. Since the introduction of our mission statement ‘Providing Innovative & Professional Training in the Health Care & Fitness Industries’ in 1989 at the inception of ACFB, we have been proud to maintain and continue the high standards of training that Robert began.
The courses offered at ACFB have been specifically designed to fit into any lifestyle while still maintaining a high standard of training. We are privileged to have highly qualified teachers with in-depth knowledge and on-going experience in their field of teaching and their respective industries.
