Personal Training AccredidationThe number of organizations offering personal training accredidation is mind boggling. (see why we can't spell accreditation)Welcome to Step 2 of Starting a Personal Training Business! If you are here, you have completed the self-evaluation in Step 1 and are moving forward toward launching your new personal training career.
Step 2 deals with the topic of Personal Trainer Certification in detail. Choosing the proper certification program can mean the difference between success and failure on your journey to become a personal trainer. So study this section carefully to make an informed choice. How do you tell the good personal training certification schools from the bad ones?You need to do your research. The best way is to talk to the people who have been through the programs. But you will often find that trainers really only have experience with the program they attended. They will recommend a program based upon what worked for them but it could be inappropriate for your career goals. To reduce this bias, I have created a web page for each of the major organizations offering personal trainer accredidation. You can review highlights of each program along with tips and reviews submitted by our readers. And if you have been through a program, make sure you submit a tip to help somebody else who is considering personal trainer accredidation.

I totally believe that obtaining my personal training accredidation is worth it. You can accept as few or as many clients as you like in a day and still have time to do other things. The certification class also comes with some really good course books and materials that you can't get at your local book seller. I took a 12 week course that cost around 300 dollars. The class met twice a week for the duration. It was totally worth it.
