Help end the health crisis in our midst.
The prevalence of chronic, inactivity-related diseases is on the rise. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately one in two people in the U.S. has at least one chronic health condition-such as heart disease, cancer, hypertension, diabetes or obesity-and one in four adults has two or more chronic health conditions.
As a health coach, you can help do your part by empowering clients to adopt and sustain healthy lifestyle behaviors that prevent, mitigate and even reverse chronic diseases.

WHAT ACE CERTIFIED PROFESSIONALS ARE SAYING
"ACE has an excellent reputation. Knowing that the health coaching certification was NCCA-accredited was very important to me. I am very satisfied with the variety of education offered by ACE, and will continue to complete the bulk of my continuing education through them, while encouraging my colleagues in the field to do the same!"

WHAT ACE CERTIFIED PROFESSIONALS ARE SAYING
"The ACE Health Coach study experience was simple and engaging—I love how all the material is rooted in behavior change. Physiology is interesting but can be presented as a dry subject. I did not feel this way with the ACE Health Coach Study Program and I always looked forward to the curriculum."
Stephanie H.ACE Certified Health Coach
WHAT ACE CERTIFIED PROFESSIONALS ARE SAYING
"My ACE Certification provides me serious credibility. There are so many people calling themselves 'coaches' out there but they’re lacking the credentials. ACE allows me to put my clients’ minds at ease knowing I'm trained, educated and credible. I am so proud to be ACE Certified!"
