NSCA Certification

[sum_dude]

Can a person with an NSCA certification be more successful than a person with a college degree?......If your wanting to start your own business would you need to have a college degree or is a Certification good enough?......Basically im asking do you need to have a college degree in order to be successful in this industry?

yes.

you charge what you want...and if you can back it up...your degree means squat.

you need a college degree to use the NSCA certifications behind your name. Otherwise they just give you a "pass/fail" result to your exam.

I don't understand, what do you mean?

You only need a degree for the NSCA CSCS certification, you don't need a degree for the certified personal trainer cert (cPT).
