Good Day,

I was wondering if the AMGA wall instructor and the AMGA single pitch instructor where the only recognized certification for instructing out there.

Is there a good alternative? Is working at the gym and passing the local gyms tests enough? or if i plan to continue working as an instructor, would it be beneficial to become AMGA certified?

Who instructs or tests you after taking the AMGA courses? Or can i download the test somewhere and take it, or can somebody "sign me off"???

just some questions i had.

Thanks already,
Kest

I would recommend getting more experience before any taking any classes. I can recommend taking the AMGA CWI. I know others who have taken the SPI and more advanced curriculums who really found it was a wise investment.

The AMGA is reputable association, maybe even the industry standard at this point.
