I’m proud to be officially certified by NCSF! 💪 The whole experience — from studying to the exam — was smooth, professional, and very well organized. The support team was super helpful, and I’m truly grateful to be part of the NCSF community. Highly recommended for anyone serious about fitness and personal training! 🔥

I’ve been an NCSF Certified Personal Trainer since 2016, beginning my journey through Penn Foster College. The NCSF’s NCCA-accredited certification provided me with a strong foundation in exercise science, anatomy, and program design — all of which have been instrumental in my professional growth. Having that NCCA accreditation made a huge difference when applying to work with big box gyms and corporate fitness centers — it immediately validated my credentials and professionalism. Years later, I still value NCSF’s emphasis on science-based education and continuing education resources that help trainers stay sharp and relevant in a changing industry. Highly recommend it to anyone serious about a long-term career in fitness. Adewale D. Ajayi, CPT (NCSF Certified since 2016)
