Stay Certified

To find out how many CEUs you have already reported, watch the how-to video on the recertification FAQ video page, or follow the steps below. 

1. Log in to your account at nsca.com (top right of this page), then click "Report CEUs" in the top utility menu. This will open your account, on the certifications tab, showing each certification you hold.

2. Click "Report CEUs" to the right of any of your certifications listed.

3. Scroll to find your Recert CEU application for the certification you want to check and click either “Create new application” if it's available, OR click the “Details” button on the right.

4. Click "Category A" in the side menu. Then scroll down until you see "Summary". This chart shows how many CEUs you have reported, and how many have been allowed per the category maximum.

5. Click through each Category, and tally your total CEUs allowed. Keep in mind, you must report CEUs in at least 2 categories. 

Once you know how many CEUs you still need (refer to the chart above to determine how many total you need), you can begin adding CEU activity by clicking the "Add" button in each category.  

Individuals with expired certifications may petition NSCA for reinstatement of their certifications at any time. Reinstatement will be granted upon fulfillment of the following conditions:

• • All CEUs must have been earned within each missed reporting period(s). CEUs cannot be "made up" after the missed reporting period has passed.
  • Presentation of documentation that all required CEUs were earned sine the last successful recertification, and earned in accordance with the requirements of the recertification policy in effect at that time. 
  • Verification of current CPR/AED certification.
  • Payment of reinstatement and all related recertification fees of previous recertification period(s).

If reinstatement is granted, certificants will maintain their initial certification date. Certificants who are denied reinstatement may appeal to the Certification Committee. The Certification Committee will review appeals at the Committee’s next scheduled meeting and render a final decision.
