For this reason, the IFPA requires ongoing education in order to renew and maintain your certification. Continuing education plays a vital role in the quality of any profession.
Fitness is no different.
We are constantly bombarded with the new and better diet and exercise plan. As professionals we need to work hard to ensure that we make sound judgments in all our health, fitness, and nutrition decisions and recommendations. Please review the enclosed packet very carefully so that you can maintain a valid certification without the extra headaches that can result from poor planning and trying to obtain CEUs at the last moment. This is designated by the expiration date on your certificate and membership card. When the certificate comes up for renewal, the certified individual is required to submit all relevant information pertaining to CEU credits obtained.
