I'm going to get ACE certified but a pre-requisite for the course is a CPR certification. This site looks legit but does anyone think it is or isn't?
cprtoday.com
I am not advertising for this website I found it on google and out of the ones on the 1st page it seemed to be the most authentic looking one.
Again I am not advertising this, I am asking if this CPR certification will work to get ACE certified?

Nevermind found the answer, which is no
"
ACE Approved CPR Certifications/Courses
"Because of the importance and criticality of hands-on skills needed to effectively perform Cardiorespiratory Resuscitation (CPR), the American Council on Exercise does NOT recognize any CPR course that is taught online without a live, hands-on skills assessment verified by a qualified CPR instructor. Therefore, only a course where participants are awarded a CPR card by demonstrating skills will be accepted."You should always play fair when you have the winning hand.

You should probably try and get a defibrillator certification also if you plan on being a personal trainer. I'm not sure where your going to be a personal trainer but most gyms around my area (NYSC, Fitnesstogether, Gold, etc) require at least the NASM certification along with hands on CPR and Defibrillator certs.
I really haven't seen anything for ACE though. What gym are you looking to be a personal trainer? Or are you just looking to have this to kinda have it under your belt?
