Basic knowledge of EDP
The subject "Basic IT knowledge" teaches basic knowledge and concepts of electronic data processing. It offers a comprehensive introduction to the world of computer technology, operating systems, networks and much more.
A computer is an electronic device that is used to process data. It performs calculations, stores and processes information. There are different types of computers, including personal computers (PCs), servers and embedded systems. Each type has specific applications and functions.
An operating system manages the hardware and software resources of a computer. It enables the execution of applications and ensures communication between hardware and software. The best-known operating systems include Windows, macOS and Linux, although each operating system has its own characteristics and areas of application.
Code can be translated by either compilers or interpreters. Compilers convert the entire code into machine language, while interpreters execute the code line by line. The fetch-decode-execute cycle describes the process by which the processor fetches, decodes and executes instructions.
A process is a program that is being executed. The management of processes includes the allocation of resources and the monitoring of their execution. Multitasking enables the simultaneous execution of several processes, whereby process scheduling determines which processes are executed when and for how long.
Hardware is controlled by special software known as drivers. Drivers enable communication between the operating system and hardware components by forwarding specific commands and data.
This module provides a solid foundation in the basic principles of electronic data processing and prepares students to understand and apply more complex concepts in IT.

Basic knowledge of EDP
The subject "Basic IT knowledge" teaches basic knowledge and concepts of electronic data processing. It offers a comprehensive introduction to the world of computer technology, operating systems, networks and much more.
A computer is an electronic device that is used to process data. It performs calculations, stores and processes information. There are different types of computers, including personal computers (PCs), servers and embedded systems. Each type has specific applications and functions.
An operating system manages the hardware and software resources of a computer. It enables the execution of applications and ensures communication between hardware and software. The best-known operating systems include Windows, macOS and Linux, although each operating system has its own characteristics and areas of application.
Code can be translated by either compilers or interpreters. Compilers convert the entire code into machine language, while interpreters execute the code line by line. The fetch-decode-execute cycle describes the process by which the processor fetches, decodes and executes instructions.
A process is a program that is being executed. The management of processes includes the allocation of resources and the monitoring of their execution. Multitasking enables the simultaneous execution of several processes, whereby process scheduling determines which processes are executed when and for how long.
Hardware is controlled by special software known as drivers. Drivers enable communication between the operating system and hardware components by forwarding specific commands and data.
This module provides a solid foundation in the basic principles of electronic data processing and prepares students to understand and apply more complex concepts in IT.

Sportkompetenz + Fitnesstrainer B-Lizenz sind ein sehr umfangreicher Kurs, in dem jede Menge Wissen vermittelt wird, welches dem aktuellen wissenschaftlichen Stand entspricht. Man bekommt einen Gegenwert für sein Geld. Der Schwerpunkt liegt auf dem Maschinentraining. Neben bekannten Übungen, werden auch interessante Spezialübungen gezeigt. Was ich etwas vermisst habe sind klassische Hantelübungen (z.B. Kurzhantelüberzüge, Kreuzhebevarianten, Kniebeugen, Bankdrücken, Stirndrücken, SZ-Bizepscurls,... usw.), welche meiner Meinung nach insbesondere für Anfänger etwas besser geeignet sind als einige der gezeigten Kabelzugübungen. Was leider ebenfalls zu kurz kommt, sind Übungen für die Bauchmuskulatur. Hier bitte nachbessern.
Auf Nachrichten wird sehr schnell reagiert. Für das Fachgespräch habe ich innerhalb von 24 Stunden einen Termin bekommen. Ich werde auf jeden Fall weitere Kurse machen. Alles in allem kann ich den Kurs sehr empfehlen.

I really enjoyed training to become a B-license fitness trainer there. The teaching materials provided are great and flawless. I learned a lot of new things there and always enjoyed what I was doing. The team is great and is always there for you if you have any questions!

The best thing that could have happened to me is this academy. Access to participants is excellent. All employees are very competent, very professional and very friendly. A person can learn so much that it is indescribably good. I would recommend it to everyone. When I arrived in Austria I was looking for something like this and luckily I found this academy and signed up for the course without hesitation. Everything we get in return is worth 100 times more than what we pay. Indescribable experience, indescribable people, once again and 1000 times I say: Thank you for everything, thank you for this indescribable experience. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU

I was able to learn a lot of new things as part of my training at the Flexyfit Academy and was able to take on a new, demanding challenge with my chosen course. The structure of the training courses is very understandable and clear, so that you can master the distance learning course on your own without any problems. If there were any questions, ambiguities or isolated problems, the Academy team was always quick to help and we could always find a common solution. Here and there I would have liked a little more practical relevance. Nevertheless, I always felt very comfortable, had great speakers and with my degree as a qualified medical sports coach, many new doors are now open to me :)
