Who Qualifies To Undertake PECI Certification Training?
Candidates for PECI certification come from all walks of life, and have varied backgrounds in coaching, teaching, sports, consulting and the Your Performing Edge method. The PECI has designed three levels of certification to address the needs of persons wishing to advance their knowledge, training and capabilities as Performing Edge practitioners. These levels range from beginning practitioners all the way to highly experienced, advanced professional Performing Edge coaches. The commonality among all candidates is that they possess a love of health and fitness and wellness, a willingness to learn more about the Your Performing Edge method, and a desire to help others through state of the art of Performing Edge coaching.
For levels I and II PECI certification, each applicant is assessed on an individual basis, and does not need to satisfy each of these qualifications to enter the program. Possible qualifying capabilities include:
- Experience as a teacher, trainer or coach.
- Experience in various activities, fitness programs, or sports
- Experience in movement or mind-body disciplines.
- Good communication skills.
- Academic preparation in a field that is in sport and movement or that supports these fields.
