Totally read that wrong.

ISSA is a good place to start. Also, east coast instructor training school. Take classes with Lenny pace if you can.

ACE, IDEA are both options as well.

Most certifications are equal. I like ACE because of the CEC options. I personally hold NASM, but it's hard to pass and doesn't get you any higher pay. Be careful with some of the in person classes because while you will learn a lot, if they are not nationally recognized they will seriously limit your job opportunities. National Recognition is ultimately the most important at first. ACE, ISSA, etc.

Most of the studying is done on your own and the test are conducted at testing centers.
