Certified Exercise Expert for Aging Adults (CEEAA)

A flexible, cost-effective, and hands-on experience.

Earn 32.9 CEU’s and your CEEAA® credential through our streamlined hybrid format:

  • Complete five interactive, self-paced modules

  • Join two optional live webinars

  • Attend one in-person capstone weekend with lab work and a practical exam

After the capstone weekend, you’ll take a cumulative online exam—with two attempts to pass both the practical and written portions (75% required).

All participants earn CE credit, but to receive the certification, both exams must be passed within 3 months. The full program must be completed within 2 years of registration.
