Who can take the PPFS course?
Anyone who has a sincere interest in the subject matter is welcome.  Although the focus is on fitness, a variety of health & wellness providers (registered massage therapists, physiotherapists, yoga instructors, pilates instructors etc) attend the course for continuing education.

Who can be certified as a PPFS?
We require proof of certification as either a group fitness (land or water) instructor or personal trainer.

When you register, you will be sent the course manual and 6 assignments by email.  You type your ansers into the documents and send them back via email.  They are marked and processed within 10 business days.

How do I take the exam if I am doing the PPFS course by on-line?
You can choose between writing the exam 3:00-5:00pm on the Sunday of an in-class course (click here for dates) or arrange your own proctor at your own cost.  Ideally your proctor is a direct supervisor and will not charge you to sit the exam.  You will receive detailed instructions for scheduling your exam when you register.
