although this course is a great start for beginners, has revised and recycled topics, great professional videos, presenters exhibit great public speaking skills, videos are edible and tests are doable, this course didn't give me almost anything to start my work in fitness industry. All questions about nutrition and exercise I had were left unanswered. Yes, I learnt and took notes about several key topics and measurements, but I don't know how to use them to build a training session or a programme. Moreover, tests are build in a way, anyone can easily pass them. The final exam is a huge disappointment. 180 questions with about 75% of questions having correct answers as As, and distraction options so obvious and irrelevant, that you can pass the test having basic school knowledge of biology. This opens doors to people who didn't get valid knowledge and deep understanding to work with people and their health in particular. This certification programme can be overused and abused by people who want to get quick proof document to get a job. I appreciate the speakers and presenters, but this negligence is a big mistake in course design.

Not a legitimate NASM-CPT certificate upon getting access to NASMu.
