NCSF Recertification Requirements
The National Council on Strength & Fitness requires trainers to recertify with 10 CEUs every two years. These CEUs must be earned during the two-year period most recent to the trainer’s last active credential status.
All continuing education units must be approved by the NCSF Board for Certification to count towards the 10 CEU limit. These CEUs can come from several different categories, including:
| Category | Maximum Value from Category |
| CPR (required) | 2 units |
| Ethics & Professional Practice (1 unit required) | 3 units |
| NCSF CEU Library | 7 units |
| College & University Courses | 7 units |
| Personal Development | 5 units |
| Seminar/Home Study/Conference, etc. | 6 units |
Recertification FAQs
NCSF requires that the CPT certification be recertified every two years.
NCSF-CPT professionals need to complete 10.0 CEUs (20 hours) every two years.
Only NCSF Approved Providers can provide reputable continuing education to NCSF-certified professionals.
Each personal trainer certification body charges varying recertification rates. These are an additional cost to the actual continuing education courses that must be taken to maintain certification.
Note: Once the maximum CEU value from one category is met, no additional CEUs can be earned from that category. The NCSF trainer must submit 10 qualified CEUs that met these compliance standards; any CEUs that do not comply with these category limits will not be applied towards recertification.
The following information will need to be mailed to NCSF for recertification:
- Completed Recertification Application
- Renewal fee ($50 for single credential, $75 for two, and $100 for three or more)
- Proof of CEU completion (Fitness Mentors certifications of completion for the continuing education classes you’ve completed)
Mail all the above items before your certification expiration date to:

Well, Fitness Mentors truly delivers! Not only is everything very plainly laid out and explained, but there are links directly to some of the sources. This course takes you from setting up your business properly to closing a sale!
I wish I had taken it when I first got started. I plan on using the techniques in marketing, closing, and pricing at this very moment! I HIGHLY recommend this course to all Fitness Instructors - especially if you are just starting your career.
Take this course immediately after certification! It will save you a lot of time and epic fails.
My applause to Fitness Mentors!
