Renewal Application

Alumni Renewals: Make sure you are logged in with your store customer account to receive your renewal discount.

If your certification has expired, you have a grace period of up to 12 months to complete the continuing education requirement to renew and save your credential status as a certified personal trainer. The initial $75 fee will have an additional $10 fee added on for each month until you complete and send in the CEC renewal forms.

SPECIAL NOTE: If you go over the 12-month past due grace period, then you are not eligible for renewal of your credential. Only a test out where you retake BOTH exams will suffice for reinstatement. As a health occupation, our goal for the public is safe knowledgeable trainers.

W.I.T.S. webinars (free) are accepted with certificate of completion.

As a BONUS with using a W.I.T.S. online course, you will receive the Digital Badge credential!
