Aquatic Exercise Fitness Professional

​

The Aquatic Fitness Professional Certification (AFPC) is an intermediate level certification designed to test a standard level of theoretical and practical competence and skill. The AEA Certified Professional is qualified to teach Aquatic Fitness to general populations where participants are approved by their physician for independent exercise. Thus, selecting an instructor, or trainer, who holds the AEA Aquatic Fitness Professional Certification helps ensure that participants will meet their health and fitness objectives through safe, effective and enjoyable water exercise.

The AEA Aquatic Fitness Professional Certification (AFPC) is based upon the Aquatic Fitness Professional Manual. The AFP Manual, published by Human Kinetics, features some of the most recent research in aquatic fitness, in addition to recently revised industry standards and guidelines.

AEA examination procedures follow guidelines set forth by CLEAR (The Council on Licensure, Enforcement and Regulation). The Aquatic Fitness Professional Certification provides a higher level of service to the community by establishing a standard level of competency for the aquatic fitness professional.
