My gym accepts internet group fitness certifications. What do you think about this trend in fitness instructor education?

A trainer/instructor is only as good as their experience and knowledge. I wouldn’t hire someone with only an online cert but, we have a higher standard here. If that same person presented me with a work history and no cert of any kind, I would consider it but, would require they obtain an accredited cert within 3 months. (of which I would happily help cover some of the cost)
