KINTREON plans to award course certificates to coaches who pass the relevant assessment, recording their learning and assessment results. These are not national vocational qualifications or equivalents to NSCA-CPT or CSCS. KINTREON currently has no official authorisation or certificate recognition agreement with NSCA. Its certificates do not confer clinical rehabilitation credentials.

Completing the learning does not itself mean passing; passing does not automatically grant brand coaching authorisation. Read about certificates and coaching scope

How can you apply to work with us?

The fees on this page are for adult coach education, separate from family training or organisational service quotes. Buying a course does not guarantee a pass. Passing does not automatically issue a formal credential, grant service authorisation or provide work; cooperation requires a separate review.

Suitable professionals who have not taken a KINTREON course may also apply for independent service review. Profiles require publication consent, and learning records, service scope, cooperation and enquiry status are confirmed separately. Both platform introductions and a coach’s own clients can be discussed.
