Together, we can make a difference through our dedication to the cause of awareness and overall better daily living. A health and fitness plan, at any level, can bring people to a better place in their recovery. Join us to improve lives.
If you are a certified personal fitness trainer or allied health professional, then you’re half way there. If you have compassion for those affected by cancer and wish to support their safe recovery into surviving cancer with more than just survival but with a new found spirit for life, then you’re ready for this course.
This is an Advanced Specialty Certificate course that, upon successful completion, qualifies you to safely and effectively train cancer recovery clients. Some cancer survivors are under the impression that they should remain inactive because it helps with fatigue and speeds recovery – wrong! Exercise during and after cancer surgery and treatments is extremely helpful for one’s physical and mental well-being. Statistically and unfortunately, cancer rates are on the rise at alarming rates. Trainers are often faced with how to effectively help a cancer survivor to maintain their quality of life without putting them at risk for injury. This course will provide you with the tools to improve the quality of a cancer survivor’s life through the right kind of exercise, strengthening and stretching.

“I've been a certified personal trainer through NFPT since 2009. At the time I didn't realize that personal training was "my calling" or my next career so I wasn't comfortable with spending a ton of money to get certified compared to some of the big certification companies. Also at that time, I needed something that was convenient with my schedule when it came to studying for the exam. Fortunately, NFPT offers a great foundation to become a personal trainer. The company is true to their word and are not only affordable but have flexible options for preparing for your personal training exam that can fit your schedule. I've been fortunate to have run my own gym, publish articles, and continue my personal training business which all started with the initial certification through NFPT. Thank you NFPT for helping me get not only started but also continue to offer CEC's and other great services.”
“I started my career in fitness 17 years ago with NFPT Personal Trainer Certification. And since then I've been able to regularly and easily gain new insights and maintain my certification. Great organization from my experience.”
