Becoming a personal trainer...advice?

I may be moving overseas soon, in my last year in the states I want to get my personal trainer certification. I have been looking at programs online (NESTA, ACE as well as a couple others, there is also a course at a local university that I can take in order to become certified)-Is there any certification program in particular or advice that you can give me in order to accomplish this goal? Any info would be great! I just needed to speak with an actual person rather than just reading things online..thanks!Becoming a personal trainer...advice?
The certification I would recommend is IFPA. I am certified by them and it has been a really good experience. My brother is also becoming certified by them and he is overseas in the military. They shipped the materials to him and he has no problem. If your interested in other certifications they have a bunch. I'm about to start their sports nutrition specialist very soon. I highly recommend them to everyone





Good Luck choosing!Becoming a personal trainer...advice?
I was formerly cert. by ACE. Now I am cert. by ISSA. I like ISSA better simply because they have a good resource board for their trainers By their trainers. They are also one of the original certifying agencies. Good Luck!
