What is fitness education?

Fitness education refers to structured professional learning designed for personal trainers and fitness instructors to maintain certification, expand expertise, and stay current with evolving industry standards. This typically includes earning CEUs or CECs through approved providers.

How does online fitness education work?

Online fitness education allows you to access course materials digitally, complete modules at your own pace, and pass required assessments remotely. Once finished, you receive a certificate that can be submitted to your certification body for renewal credit.

Is Fitness Education Online accredited?

Yes. Fitness Education Online is an approved continuing education provider for major certification bodies including NASM, ACE, AFAA, canfitpro, and NFPT. Our courses are designed to meet recognized renewal standards.

How long do I have access to my course?

Most courses provide extended access so you can complete your education at your own pace. Specific access details are listed on each course page prior to enrollment.

What are CEUs for personal trainers?

CEUs (Continuing Education Units) are credits required by certification bodies to maintain an active personal training credential. They demonstrate that you are continuing to develop your professional knowledge and stay aligned with current industry standards. CEUs are earned by completing approved continuing education courses within your renewal period.

How many CEUs do I need for personal training recertification?

CEU requirements vary by certification provider and credential. Most major organizations require continuing education every one to two years. Always confirm your specific renewal requirements directly with your certification body before enrolling.

Are these personal trainer CEU courses accredited?

Yes. Fitness Education Online offers approved personal trainer CEU courses recognized by major certification bodies including NASM, ACE, AFAA, canfitpro and NFPT. Approval status is clearly listed on each course page so you can confirm eligibility before enrolling.

Are these fitness CEU courses accepted by NASM and ACE?

Many of our fitness CEU courses are approved by NASM and ACE. Each course page clearly outlines which certification bodies recognize the credits, including the number of CEUs or CECs awarded. This ensures transparency before you enrol.

What's the difference between CEUs and CECs for personal trainers?

None. CEU stands for Continuing Education Unit; CEC stands for Continuing Education Credit. Most U.S. organizations (NASM, ACE, AFAA, NFPT) use the term CEU, while canfitpro uses CEC. Both terms refer to the same thing: credits earned by completing approved learning that count toward renewing your personal trainer certification.

How much do personal trainer CEU courses cost?

Our individual personal trainer CEU courses start at $125. Multi-course bundles designed to cover an entire renewal cycle in one purchase start at $249 and offer the lowest cost per CEU. All pricing is listed on each course page, and there are no monthly subscriptions or hidden renewal fees.

Can I complete personal trainer continuing education entirely online?

Yes. Every course in our library is 100% online and self-paced. You can complete personal trainer continuing education on any device, from anywhere, and you keep access to course materials after completion. There are no in-person attendance requirements and no fixed start dates.

How quickly do I receive my CEU certificate after completing a course?

Your certificate of completion is generated and delivered instantly after you finish the course and pass any required assessments. You can download it immediately and submit it to your certifying body the same day.

Don’t just take our word for it. Take a look at what our students (personal trainers just like you) are saying about us. Our wide range of courses, workouts, drills, and games have helped them develop exercise programs that are fun, safe, and effective.

“It’s amazing how many different exercises you can do with a battlerope. I enjoyed learning about all of them. All the information I needed was in the course material. I found it very helpful.”

“Thank you that is amazing, i have done some of these but i love the way you have explained and video demo for it. I love incorporating games. This has really helped me.”

“Outstanding – I emailed 4 courses providers on the weekend over Xmas break. I did not expect any responses. However, I got an email response from Jonathon almost immediately.”

“I just want to say thank you so much for your amazing stuff. It’s already revolutionised my business and reignited my passion for PT!”

“10/10! I was not looking for someone to tell me to just do something. I found the personal touches like calling clients prior and after session to be very useful.”

“Informative and easy to navigate, the course was helpful in all aspects of helping to improve my business. I will be doing more courses with you”

“Only 2 weeks in and thanks to fitness education online iv gone from 10 direct debit bootcamp clients to 26 and 6 new PT clients. I had been struggling for months before now with a brand new hyped up gym opening near me. I almost shut my business down. Well not anymore. Onwards and upwards to reach 50 new direct debit clients is my next goal. I cant wait to keep studying.”

“Hey jono not sure if you remember but I messaged you about me doing an info session for my first Bootcamp ever and you rang me with some advice. Well 23 turned up for info session and 22 have paid in advance and One apologized stating she would live to do it however she feels her body was not up to it. First session tomorrow morning, yay. Thank you thank you thank you.”

“Ashy Bines here! I’ve known Jono from Fitness Education Online for a long time now and we’ve worked pretty closely together in the past and he knows a thing or two about running a successful bootcamp! If you’re trainer looking to grow your Bootcamp i’d definitely recommend talking to Jono- easy going ,fun and doesnt complicate things!”
