I’m disappointed that Coursera wasn’t more clear and straightforward that this isn’t the official accredited test. I used other resources that were a lot more in-depth to study for the exam and upon comparison, found Coursera’s material to sometimes lack depth and practical application points.

I would like to sincerely thank Coursera for offering the NASM Personal Fitness Trainer course. The course content was extremely well-structured and informative, and it greatly helped me in completing it successfully. I truly appreciate the support and quality education provided.

Il corso è ben completato e il corpo docente ha una grande competenza e la didattica è molto buona, trasmettendo diverse conoscenze importanti sia agli studenti che hanno già conoscenze sia a quelli che non hanno conoscenze in materia.

O curso é muito completo e oferece um conteúdo que agrega na profissão. Como já sou formado no Brasil, fiz o curso para agregar no meu currículo.
O ponto negativo foi descobrir após a conclusão, que a NCCA não reconhece o certificado, e ficam querendo obrigar voce a fazer uma nova prova por um valor exorbitante. Então cuidado se o seu objetivo for ter uma certificação reconhecida pela NCCA, esse certificado do coursera não serve.
