    NSCA. If i were hiring people and it came down to two i liked, id hire the NSCA trainer over any others, aside from ACSM. You really have to have some knowledge to pass those two. ACE isnt a bad one either. But to be honest, college is a great place to start, really drilling the anatomy, physiology and chemistry of the human body. Being a trainer is more than just putting people through a workout.
