ACSM’s Committee on Certification and Registry Boards (CCRB)

Mission and Objectives (excerpted from the ACSM CCRB Operating Code, June, 2005):

CCRB Mission Statement: The CCRB will develop, provide, and market high quality, accessible, affordable credentials for health and exercise professionals who are responsible for preventive and rehabilitative programs that influence the health and well-being of all individuals.

  • Quality Assurance and Consistency: The CCRB will continually upgrade the quality and consistency of all certification and registry programs as they relate to workshops, educational materials, exam format and content, management plans, materials to the candidate, and internal and external review of the workshops and/or examination sites.
  • Career Relevancy and Advocacy: The CCRB will maintain a leadership position in the profession and marketplace by promoting superior standards and communicating information concerning the unique attributes of ACSM credentialed professionals in the public sector (e.g., students, educational institutions, practitioners, employers, peer professional organizations, governmental agencies, and others).
  • Service: The CCRB will create and maintain an international network of ACSM credentialed professionals and to encourage continuing education opportunities.
  • Expansion/Growth: The CCRB will expand examination opportunities, thus increasing the number of credentialed individuals, facilities, and educational institutions which adhere to the ACSM certification and registry guidelines.
  • Educational Outreach: The CCRB will be responsive to other groups and organizations who express interest in our credentials and programs or the development of group specific continuing education programs.
