Certified Personal Trainer, CPT, is the title and accompanying acronym used in the personal fitness training industry for an individual who has been appropriately assessed by a national certifying organization, successfully demonstrating the necessary skill sets of the certified personal trainer by way of the respective assessment. This general title is specified by an organizational distinction with respect to the certification organization that you achieved your certification through. For example, after becoming certified by NFPT, you will use the acronym “NFPT-CPT” as your distinct title for recognition of achievement and skill set competency.
