Certification Renewal Online

All CPTN certified personal trainers are expected to keep relevant in terms of continuing education credits (CECs) with Online Courses, Workshops or Conferences and Certification Renewal.

You can also complete related courses from other providers, then Petition them for a total of 7 credits. If approved, courses can be submitted as a petitioned course on the Certification Renewal form.

You will be able to renew for 1-year with CPTN-7 CECs or 2-years with CPTN-14 CECs. One hour of continuing education equals 1 CPTN CEC. CEC proof of completion including current First Aid and CPR C/AED certificates will be required for Document Submission at the time of renewal.
