emphasis on practical fitness, nature of being well respected and
being accredited and their international scope. I have to say that I am pleased
with my decision. Customer service is always excellent. They have numerous
deals on advanced certifications throughout the year to use for continuing
education and I even had the luxury of taking my initial professional certification
exam at a proctored location of my discretion within a few miles of my house. Now that's convenience! I look forward to continuing my journey in the

My association with the IFPA began back in 2004, and all I can say is it's been the best every step of the way! It is no wonder that it is so highly respected in the industry. Everyone I have had the pleasure of dealing with through the years has been friendly, kind and helpful, and always gone out of their way to assist in any way possible. They have made the re-certification process easy to navigate, and always made me feel appreciated as a member of the organization. As long as I continue my training I will always be certified by the IFPA!
