What about NFPT??

by Margot

No one on the discussion forum is mentioning NFPT...is that because it's not recognized, or that you can't get hired with that certification?

It seems like a good online option because they recert yearly, but the recert rate is only $85 as compared to NASM's $800 (including CEUs).

Can anyone give a review of the NFPT and how employable someone with that cert would be??

This was my questions too. I went for it after reviewing my other options. The study material is very confusing - the study guide primarily. Margot, did you decide to go with NFPT. I would really like to hear what someone else thinks of the program.

NFPT is employable
by: Anonymous

I chose NFPT for the very reason it wasn't going to cost me an arm and a leg. I found that they were all very helpful when I had questions and their flexible pay plan is awesome. The rates above I believe have changed but if your on your ball and sign up for their specials you may be able to get a discount on the cert. I know they've done one around the 4th of July.

I completed the NFPT certification process and there are definite added perks. Through NFPT I'm also a member of IDEA for 6 months which is awesome because you get access to all the member areas, get discounts to all their workshops, gear and other services (insurance etc.) that they have available at discounted rates.

I haven't run into anyone who won't hire you by having this certification. Stroller Strides, Golds, most major gyms are aware and accept NFPT.

NFPT is a Great Certification
by: L. M.

NFPT is a great organization and is NCCA accredited. There are over 300 testing locations across the nation, either computer-based or scheduled one-on-one by appointment with a testing official.

In addition to the NFPT-CPT Personal Trainer Certification Program, also offered are a Nutrition Specialist, Weight and Resistance Training Specialist, and Endurance Training Specialist programs.
