I utilize the AFFA online Continuing Education Courses to get a majority of my CEUs. Once a year I will attend a workshop, seminar, or specialty certification to cover two objective: credits towards CE and gain new training ideas/techniques.

I recently got my personal training certificate through AFAA and one of the reason I went with them is because, they offered it on-line and also because I liked what I say on there website. I am a busy business owner and mother and I know that when it comes time to re-new my Continuing Education Courses I will do it on-line, because that works for my and my busy life. Thank you AFAA for making it so easy to stay on top of what’s cutting edge in the fitness industry. Stacy Rae Mednick CPT

As an AFAA employee, here are some ways that you can attain your AFAA CEUs

1. Take a live AFAA workshop
2. Take an AFAA online program.
3. Take an AFAA self study (home study course)
4. Take a AFAA approved workshop like the IDEA Fitness Conference, Zumba, etc.
5. Health/Medical/Fitness college courses are automatically accepted for AFAA CEUs. EXAMPLE: For a 3.0 unit course, AFAA will give you 6.0 AFAA CEUs.
6. State approved programs such as Nursing, Physical Therapy, Athletic Trainer, Massage Therapy, Occupational Therapy are automatically accepted for AFAA CEUs. EXAMPLE: For 7.0 contact hours, AFAA will give you 7.0 AFAA CEUs.
7. ACSM courses are automatically accepted for AFAA CEUs.
8. Other live workshops may be accepted possible be petitioned for credit if you can provide the following information: (a) certificate of completion, (b) agenda: hour by hour timeline/breakdown of lecture and practical hours and (c) proof that the presenter has a current AFAA certification or a minimum of a Health/Medical/Fitness related degree.

Hi Sarah,
The best way to get your CEU’s are to take the AFAA home study course which is always offered through their magazine. Online and AFAA workshops are also good. The way that I get the majority of my CEU/CEC’s for all my certifications is through IDEA’s World Conference, which is in Los Angeles this August.

Please keep in mind that most Certification Organizations do require you to do 2 – 5 additional CEU/CEC’s that are directly through them.
