I just got a degree in exercise science, what certification would you recommend getting next?
Hi Jeannette,
I’m with Harris – it really depends on what type of training you want to specialize in. For instance, if you want to train athletes, I would go with the NSCA. On the other hand, if you wanted to work in a more clinical setting, I would probably go with a certification from the ACSM. But there are plenty of certifications that fall in between those two – just check the NCCA website to make sure it’s an accredited organization. Good luck Jeannette & congratulations on getting your degree.
