On site Certification examinations include 100 questions in a multiple choice format that test the comprehension of material covered in IFPA programs. All exams include a 30 question written practical component. Advanced certifications also include a practical demonstration component. Distance Learning Certifications are similar in format consisting of 200 questions, including a 50 question written practical component. Registered participants who do not pass the first time around are given the opportunity to retake the Certification exam for a modest retake fee.
Certifications are intensive two day programs.
The first day is an optional preparatory workshop. This is followed by a second day of review and testing. The goal of the IFPA Certifications is to not only teach the essentials of the certification topic, but to also teach the student how to disseminate knowledge in fitness, health, and nutrition. In this manner, IFPA students are able to increase their skills and knowledge in fitness, health, and nutrition more effectively after they have taken an IFPA Certification.
