Personal Training Certification

The Scantic Valley YMCA is hosting both a three day workshop and certification review/test for those who wish to receive a personal training certification. The three day workshop provides exercise science information, updated industry guidelines, behavioral objectives, dimensions of wellness and more. This workshop will give you the knowledge needed to help pass the actual certification test. The ACSM Certification test and review will be held on the last day of the workshop.
