Which organization, in your guys opinion, is the best for getting certified for personal training? Not like the certification really means anything these days, but you gotta have it if you want to get hired.
I’m looking at ACE because it get mad brownie points in my new gym.
I’m doing ASCM. ACE is kind of looked down upon by most people with actual credentials.
I hear ASCM and NCSM are the “best”.
agreed.
ACSM ftw
In Canada I went and got the CanFitPro. Stupid commercial crap if you ask me.
What a waste of time and money.
I’m doing my ACE right now, because its my gyms cert of choice, they are paying for my books and getting me a discount.
ACE is kind of like a high school diploma, it’s nice to have but anyone can get it. The “best” ones you can get without a 4 year are the NSCA, ACSM and NSCM if you have a 4 year degree the CSCS is the master degree of personal training.
