ACSM Health/Fitness
Instructor® Workshop and
Continuing Education Workshop: Business Management for the Fitness Professional
The ACSM Health/Fitness Instructor® (HFI)
is a
professional qualified to assess, design, and implement
individual and group exercise and fitness programs for
apparently healthy individuals and individuals with
controlled diseases. The HFI is skilled in evaluating health
behaviors and risk factors, conducting fitness assessments,
writing appropriate exercise prescriptions, and motivating
individuals to modify negative health habits and maintain
positive lifestyle behaviors for health promotion. The HFI
certification provides professionals with recognition of
their practical experience and demonstrated competence as a
leader of health and fitness programs in the university,
corporate, commercial or community settings in which their
clients participate in health promotion and fitness-related
activities. The HFI Workshop provides structured experiences
in the classroom and the laboratory to help prepare
candidates for the HFI exam.
The Continuing Education Workshops are designed
specifically for ACSM-certified professionals and are
excellent ways to acquire CECs and stay up-to-date on
health- and fitness-related topics. The 1-day workshops are
not intended to prepare participants for the ACSM HFI
certification exam. |
