Build practical knowledge for the clients, populations, and career opportunities you want to pursue.
Learn Your Way.
Flexible learning options are available for select programs.
W.I.T.S. offers certification programs for personal trainers, group fitness instructors, health coaches, fitness managers, and professionals serving specialized populations. Review each program to find the credential that aligns with the clients, settings, and career opportunities you want to pursue.
Certification verifies that a candidate has met the applicable eligibility and examination requirements for a credential. Education, training, study resources, and exam-preparation materials support learning, but they are separate from the certification decision.
Candidates pursuing the W.I.T.S. Certified Personal Trainer credential may register for the required certification examinations without purchasing W.I.T.S. training or preparatory materials. W.I.T.S. education and study resources are optional, and candidates may prepare using materials of their choice.
