  1. You have to pass a proctored closed book exam. Once you pass the test you will receive your certificate in the mail. There are several different certifications companies out there. Be wary of the $49.95 certifications. They are not legit and gyms will not accept them. And if your clients were to do any research and find out that your certificate comes from a joke of a certification company - they will drop you and find another trainer. The best certification companies are accredited by a third party. The highest is thought to be NCCA/NOCA. There is only a handful that has this accreditation. Anyone can become a "member" of NOCA but the certification company has to go through a very tough process to become accredited. And many are denied. I personally think IFPA is the best certification company. It will take you up to 6 months (less if you are really motivated) to get certified. They are an international certification so they will send out materials to you no matter where you are located. http://www.ifpa-fitness.com
