PERSONAL TRAINER CERTIFICATION

WHAT IS IT?
A three-day certification workshop including lectures, practical demonstrations and written and practical exams.

The curriculum includes:

• Anatomy and kinesiology

• Nutrition fundamentals and weight management
• Special populations and medical considerations
• Listening, leadership and motivational skills
• Exercise programming in the weight room
• Wellness programming and screening guidelines

For the aspiring and experienced fitness professional working one-on-one with exercise clients.

• Early registration and pre-study is required.
• Weightroom/weight training experience is strongly recommended.
