As the name of the training states, it is a basic training.

No prerequisites are required. All training is provided for new instructors who have never received any fitness training.

Our training is accessible to all.

All our congratulations for having already undertaken a certified teaching process.
To earn your CP 314 certification, simply sign up for an accelerated training course we call “Quick Training”. Your presence will only be mandatory on the second day of training (eg: Sunday). You will learn our vocabulary and participate in the practical test of candidates as well as the written test (Q.C.M.)

The basic training provided by the Belgian Indoor Cycling Academy is the ONLY training of indoor cycling instructors, recognized by the world of professionals grouped under the Joint Commission CP 314 for fitness.

There are many other training courses but none of them is officially recognized by the fitness world in Belgium.

Certification is a token of recognition for fitness center owners.
Fitness center owners are as part of their function as employer, subject to the contractual and salary conditions defined by JC 314.

When you are employed under JC 314, you can get your approved training costs reimbursed. The amount of this reimbursement is determined by JC 314.

The training provided by the Belgian Indoor Cycling Academy is a basic training. There are therefore no necessary prerequisites.

However, regular practice of the discipline is an unavoidable asset to the success of your practical and written tests.

During this training weekend, three wrinkles (minimum) must be followed. These wrinkles are of a certain physical and emotional intensity. Good physical fitness is an asset.

In accordance with the Law, you (and we) must ensure that you have no medical contraindications to indoor cycling.

If you wish, you can give us a medical certificate before the start of this training.

Nevertheless, trainers require from candidates at least a sworn statement that the candidate has all the medical qualifications to follow this training. The medical certificate is therefore not essential.

To fully complete this training, you will need:

  • your official ID
  • your note-taking equipment
  • two sportswear adapted to the practice of indoor cycling
  • a pair of cycling shoes (SPD wedges or sneakers with
    thick and rigid soles
    )
  • a heart rate monitor (if you do not have one, we can provide you with a POLAR H9 sensor for 55€ working with your mobile phone)
  • a laptop, tablet or mobile phone to take your written test online
  • one lunch packet per day
  • of your GOOD MOOD.

The trainers of the Belgian Indoor Cycling Academy are above all passionate. They have been trained in several disciplines and have a sporting background of several years.

In the practice of indoor cycling, the trainers of the B.I.CA. have at least 5 years of intensive practice.

The trainers are co-opted by the founders of the Belgian Indoor Cycling Academy on the basis of their human qualities, sporting qualities, intellectual qualities evaluated during a selection interview and their propensity to transmit their passion.

YES.

If you wish to leave the training early, you will not be able to take the practical and written tests.

Only instructors already certified in another indoor cycling course and enrolled in “rapid training” are allowed to follow only the second day of training.

The only possibility of reimbursement is only on presentation of a medical certificate (C.M.) attesting to the inability to follow this training.

However, the reimbursement of the amount of the training is made under the following conditions:

  • 100% if the C.M. is sent at least 1 month before the date of training.
  • 75% if the C.M. is sent three weeks before the date of the training.
  • 50% if the C.M. is sent two weeks before the date of training.
  • 25% if the C.M. is sent one week before the date of the training.

If you are already certified indoor cycling instructor of the Belgian Indoor Cycling Academy ASBL, you have the opportunity to come back for a FREE REFRESH during a basic training.

The only condition is to inform the training team of your presence.
