I'm interested in applying for a work at a ClubMed resort and then perhaps move back to Italy where I'm originally from. Would you recommend this course for me since I'm already graduated in Nutrition? Also, do you think the good folks at ClubMed will accept and aknowledge this certification for a job in a resort? Thank you so much.

    The biggest difference is that they tried to take you through all the material in 4 weeks. It's definitely an intense program and I only recommended if you have all day to dedicate to studying for those four weeks. But it is a good way to get certified quickly if you do have the time.

    As a seasoned fitness professional of 35 years, I've grown to despise all of the fitness certs. In 93, I got ACSM, because that was the gold standard, but over the years, the name of that cert has changed 6 times, and there is no clear reason why other than money. We pay for the CEU's to keep the certification current, and then we have to pay the cert agency each 2 to 4-year period on top of the classes for the CEU's. I just had Plus One tell me that I should get ACSM's personal training cert. WTF and on top of all that, I've got my MS from Springfield College. I appreciate your enthusiasm and knowledge, but this is all a racket. I would bet people at a bar bought drinks for the powers to be of companies and told them to require their cert, and of course, there is no clear proof of studies testing fitness professional's knowledge to guarantee that any specific cert has more knowledgable people. I also sometimes wonder whether companies are advertising jobs that do not exist but require certs, to promote that cert. I did use my health and fitness knowledge to stop my mother with mild dementia from forgetting me and I'm almost finished with my graphic memoir about it.
