Hi, I'm new here. I have been looking for a forum to ask questions on. I bought the IFPA (International Fitness Professional Association) personal trainer kit. Unfortunately a few years back I bought the ACE package and didn't use it so I sold it. Now I have this one and was wondering if I made a mistake in buying it. It seems like there isn't much info out there on them. Is anyone here familiar with it?

I am finding it very difficult to do the home study course and would love any help or suggestions anyone could give. Thanks! Danielle

Hi Danielle,

I didn't see any response to your post??

A great tip for studying ANY materials is to set up a schedule. Determine when you would like to have the materials completed by, then determine how many total pages you have to study. Then just do the math by dividing the total by the number of days to find out how many pages you need to study each day.

Now, if you don't have a deadline for when you want to be completed with the materials, you can set up a goal of how many pages you'll go through each day or week. Then put it on your scheduler, find someone to be accountable to, and do it.

This is what I have done for every exam I have had to take; NSCA, ACE, ADA, and others..

You may have posted somewhere else, so hopefully this isn't all just old news! I've been away awhile and am trying to catch up.

Margie
