With advancements unfolding within the athletic training, sports performance and fitness industries and the growth of PRI across more disciplines, as well as internationally, we are excited to announce that we are expanding the Postural Restoration Trained™ (PRT) Credentialing Program to now include Personal Trainers, Pilates Instructors, Registered Yoga Teachers and more. To view a complete list of organizations and certifications/credentials that are now accepted for PRT Credentialing, along with the updated Application, CLICK HERE! All PRT applicants must also provide verification of completed Bachelor’s degree or higher degree.
When PRT Credentialing was originally established in 2011, it was a credentialing process that was created for Athletic Trainers and Certified Strength & Conditioning Coaches, bringing together collaboration within sports rehabilitation and performance. The Athletic Training profession has evolved over the past 15 years, and a Master’s Degree became the required entry-level credential for new Athletic Trainers in the United States in 2022. As a result of these changes, and with the expansion of the PRT Credentialing Program to include additional fitness-related certifications, Athletic Trainers and Athletic Therapists, as allied health professionals, are now eligible to apply for the Postural Restoration Certified™ (PRC) Credentialing Program, alongside PT’s, PTA’s, OT’s, OTA’s and Chiropractors. Athletic Trainers who completed PRT Credentialing in the past will have the option to be recognized as a PRC Credentialed Provider, after completing the Advanced Integration course (if that course has not already been completed).
We are excited about the opportunity to formally recognize more individuals, who share the passion and expertise for applying PRI knowledge and principles into their professional setting. To learn more about the application and testing process for PRT and PRC Credentialing, CLICK HERE!
Ger started on your PRI Credentialing journey today. PRC Applications are due September 15th, and PRT Applications are due October 15th each year!
