ACE Certification Renewal

The NCCA establishes standards of excellence for certification programs and awards accreditation to programs for registered dietitians, registered nurses, medical assistants, occupational therapists and other professions. Employers and the public are increasingly aware of the difference between credible certifications and non-accredited certifications. ACE Certified Personal Trainers, Group Fitness Instructors and Medical Exercise Specialist are placed on the U.S. Registry of Exercise Professionals (USREPS), alongside colleagues from participating NCCA-accredited health and fitness organizations. USREPS is an internationally recognized registry for qualified fitness professionals in the U.S., created so that the public and employers may verify those professionals.

ACE believes that well-qualified health and fitness professionals must become recognized as health providers and be authorized to provide prevention and wellness intervention services in the healthcare environment. We are working to evolve the healthcare system so ACE Certified Professionals may become part of patient-centered care teams and help far more people become physically active and stay healthy. ACE advocates for incentivized employee wellness programs that support and guide participants, allowing adults to work toward optimal health status in an environment where they spend a large portion of their time. Additionally, ACE collaborates with policy makers to influence the policies that impact our ability to be a part of the obesity solution. We work with legislators all the way to Capitol Hill to ensure the public has access to well-qualified health and fitness professionals and shared, public space for exercise.
