Why should I choose NASM to launch or grow my fitness career?
NASM is trusted by over 1.5 million professionals for a reason. With science-backed programs, flexible learning options, and a reputation for excellence, NASM helps you build real-world skills and confidence to succeed in any fitness setting — from gyms to online coaching. Whether you're just starting out or leveling up, NASM gives you the tools to stand out and thrive.
What prerequisites do I need for the NASM Elite Trainer Bundle?
To take the Certified Personal Trainer (CPT) exam, you'll need a high school diploma or GED, along with CPR/AED certification. You can start the course before earning your CPR/AED credentials, but they're required before taking the exam. The other courses in the bundle — Certified Nutrition Coach (CNC), Corrective Exercise Specialization (CES), and Performance Enhancement Specialization (PES) — don't have mandatory prerequisites, though prior experience or certification is recommended for CES and PES.
How do the exams work for the programs in the Elite Trainer Bundle?
Each course includes an online exam you can take from anywhere. The CPT program offers two options: a non-proctored certificate exam or a proctored, NCCA-accredited certification exam. CNC, CES, and PES exams are open-book, timed, and require a passing score of 70% or higher. You'll have up to three attempts to pass — giving you flexibility and confidence as you complete each credential.
How long will I have to complete the programs in the Elite Trainer Bundle?
You'll have 180 days from date of purchase to complete the Certified Personal Trainer program, which can be completed in as few as 4 weeks. For the other programs (Certified Nutrition Coach, Corrective Exercise Specialization, Performance Enhancement Specialization), you'll have 365 days to complete them. The courses are self-paced, so you can move through the content on your own schedule within that timeframe.
Will I have to renew any of the credentials in the Elite Trainer Bundle?
Yes. The CPT and CNC credentials require renewal every two years through continuing education to stay active and ensure you're up to date with industry standards. If you're an NASM One™ member, all recertification and renewal fees are waived while your membership is active — making it easier to maintain your credentials without added cost.
What is the Job Guarantee*?
Upon successful completion of your NASM Certified Personal Trainer (NCCA-Accredited Certification Exam), NASM guarantees that you will get a job within 90 days, or the cost of the Job Guarantee will be refunded to you. Terms and conditions apply to the Job Guarantee and can be found in the T&Cs (Section 5).
