IDEA Health & Fitness Association (IDEA), the world's largest membership organisation for fitness professionals, has introduced the IDEA Certificate Program, a video-based home-study programme.

The product has been created for fitness professionals who want to add to their skill set and includes two tracks: Group Strength Program Design and Choreography Class Design.

The courses will be delivered by IDEA's elite presenters Carol Murphy, Shannon Fable, Donna Hutchinson, Rob Glick and Petra Kolber.

The teaching material includes up to eight hours of material for each specialty track to prepare fitness professionals for the homework and exam that accompany the video curriculum.

Successful completion of the test is rewarded with an IDEA Certificate of Completion that can be added to a resumé or presented to an employer to show professional growth.

Each track also includes CECs/CEUs (there are up to nine hours of CECs/CEUs available from ACE, ACSM, NASM, NFPT, NCCPT and W.I.T.S.).
