Hello Jana Shaw,
Good for you; you may want to specialize in the youth population…or not. How specifically may we help you?
Take care,
Natalie aka NAPS 2 B Fit.

Hi Jana,

Here is a link to a list of certifying agencies that are NCCA accredited (a standard that many employers look for in a certification).
If I can find you a more update list I will post…

You can start there and then research the requirements for the certifications that interest you.

Best,
Christine

What do you want to teach, and to whom?

That will help narrow down your path.
