NASM: 8 Week Personal Trainer Program

Program Summary: NASM's comprehensive curriculum is based on scientific research, fitness expert experience, and is directly aligned with critical occupational competencies - including those defined by the Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Outlook. The Program aligns scientific content areas, laboratory performance domains and occupational skills for students to get a blend of classroom and hands-on learning.

The NASM 8 Week Personal Trainer Program is supported by knowledge and skill assessments that help to measure student progress. This custom accelerated program features:

- High-quality educational resources
- Centrally located Instructor resources
- Student resource center
- Robust lesson-plan and assessment materials created by instructors and NASM fitness experts
- Occupationally-relevant activities created by instructors and fitness experts

Additionally, NASM provides lead generation, marketing support and other benefits when forming an educational partnership with us. In the end, our goal is to assure student and institutional success with our program and a future of gainful employment.

Community Job Survey: The median salary of a Personal Trainer is $54,200 per year*. Annual earnings of $100,000 have been reported for the top 10% of trainers. Employment of Fitness Workers is expected to increase 29 percent over the 2008-18 decade, which is much faster than the average of other occupations. These workers are expected to gain jobs because of an increasing number of people spending time and money on fitness and more businesses recognizing the benefits of health and fitness programs for their employees.

Certification: Upon successful completion of the NCCA-accredited credentialing exam graduates earn the distinction as a Certified Personal Trainer (CPT) from NASM. Certification is only the beginning. When you become an elite NASM-certified professional, you open the door to numerous career path opportunities. Schedule: Program content is delivered online and can be complimented with weekly on-site, practical hands-on learning experiences.
