Personal Trainer Prep Class I

Recreational Sports is offering the Personal Trainer Prep Class I for Winter Term. This class prepares students with the knowledge to successfully complete the American Council on Exercise (ACE) Personal Trainer Exam (NCAA accredited), while developing practical skills necessary for personal trainers: motivational interviewing, coaching, and incident response. The Personal Trainer Prep Class I is the first class in a two-part series; the level II class will be offered Spring Term. The level I class is targeted toward lower-division students who have not completed the anatomy series, focusing on basic anatomy and physiology, moving from knowledge to practical application. Resources are provided, and class time is spent discussing and applying material that candidates of the ACE exam must know to successfully complete the test. The class also focuses on skills needed to successfully complete an audition for hire as a personal trainer at Recreational Sports. The class costs $125 for students. Class is held for six weeks this Winter Term, on Wednesdays 5:50-8:30pm and Fridays 2-5pm. The class begins on Wednesday, 1/27, and concludes on Friday, 2/23.
