What’s the difference between the two Certified Personal Trainer exam types? Which one should I take?
You have the choice between two exams—a non-proctored Certificate exam, and a proctored NCCA-Accredited Certification exam. Here are some of the major differences between the two:
• The non-proctored exam has 100 questions; the proctored exam has 120 questions. • You have 3 hours to complete the non-proctored exam; you have 2 hours to complete the proctored exam. • The non-proctored exam is open-book; the proctored exam is not. • The non-proctored exam confers a Certificate as a Personal Trainer; the proctored exam confers an NCCA-Accredited Certification as a Personal Trainer.
The choice of exam is up to you and in most cases simply depends on what your employer requires.
What’s the Certified Personal Trainer final exam like?
The non-proctored, online-only exam contains 100 questions that must be answered within 3 hours. This exam is open-book, meaning you can refer to your study materials.
