Absolute regret for purchasing this…
Absolute regret for purchasing this certification program. Much of the information is outdated and is very subjective to this association, as having been enrolled in NASM prior and working in the industry for years, I've seen substantial incorrect information within NFPT's program.
Not to mention the unprofessionalism - there are typos everywhere, the teachers pontificate with cheesy scripts and a powerpoint, and the MOST IMPORTANT POINT - a lot of basic fitness information is covered on these tests. However, this company has changed a lot of the wording to be very specific to their course, so having knowledge prior is not enough to pass, you are still going to have to memorize all of their weird terminology that you will never use again in training or anywhere else in life. The typos are often significant enough to make questions actually confusing to anyone that can read, and therefore leads you to make unnecessary mistakes.
Their partner service, Global Fit Educators, are also worth avoiding at all costs, they are the middleman that provides the study materials, and force in a no refunds clause that you must opt into, which should have been the most obvious red flag in the world. You get what you pay for, and there's a reason this program is a fraction of the cost of any other. Absolute disaster.
