Here's what our Graduates are saying about the SETS program and their Instructors.
"SETS is an excellent school for personal training and the National Strength and Conditioning Exam Preparation. I felt very confident and prepared taking the national exam. David, the instructor, is absolutely delightful. He is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. I am so grateful to havebeen able to attend the school. I have always been interested in personal training and finally had an opportunity to take a class. I tried studying on my own using the distance learning courses (ACE) and would get extremely frustrated. I then tried another school, which was a six-month program (NPTI) and felt I was wasting my time. I then luckily found David's school, which turned out to be one of the best things I have done in my life. It is only four months, reasonably priced, and helps you prepare to take a national exam which most of the others school do not offer. I am now in amazing shape, have a wealth of knowledge, and a prestigious certification. David really goes out of his way to help his students, which is rare in a teacher. He really enjoys what he does and explains the material in way that is easy to understand. I haveworked out all my life but always felt intimidated in a gym. Now, I have the confidence to go into any gym and perform any exercise correctly. It's amazing the difference in my workouts now, as I am more efficient and effective. I see so many people in the gym performing exercises incorrectly so they are really not getting the benefits. I truly enjoyed my time at SETS and am so grateful for the knowledge I have today. I would recommend SETS to anyone who wants to become a personal trainer or just learn for personal enrichment." Jackln J, NSCA-CPT
After long hours of research and interviews with other programs, I chose to attend the School of Exercise and Training Science based upon the completeness of the overall program, the well designed facility offering individual and group training experience and mainly because of the professionalism and passion projected by Dr. David Shipitofsky. With absolutely no background in anatomy or kinesiology and only possessing exercise knowledge learned from magazines, my late life career change was made possible by Dr. Shipitofsky's well planned, thorough instruction in the classroom and direction in the fitness center, all presented in easy to understand discussions and demonstrations. I could have chosen a shorter, easier program or a lesser certification, but I wanted to learn and remember the in depth material of the NSCA so that I would be qualified for the employment and future opportunities of my choosing. My training career is well underway thanks to Doc D. Easily passing the NSCA-CPT certification test was great but all the "extra" knowledge and "hands-on" experience is what is making me a great trainer. G. Staudenmaier, NSCA-CPT
As a former college athlete and work-out enthusiast, I believed I had a vast knowledge of training. SETS changed everything! David Shipitofsky, or Doc D as I like to call him, was a wealth of information. The assets I acquired while attending SETS are commodities that I treasure. Knowledge gained and retained while attending this course has changed my life and all those I come in contact with forever. Doc D really lit a fire in me for enlightenment in fitness training, nutrition, and kinesiology. Although, no matter how much continuing education I attain, my foundation from SETS allows me to distinguish fact from fiction in the complex, ever changing world of fitness. How David manages to impart so much information into such a condensed program is amazing! I would endorse SETS to anyone who is SERIOUS about a career in personal training. Whoopty Woo, Whoopty Woo.... L. Hines-Bey, NSCA-CPT
"Enrolling in SETS was a transformational life experience! One of the most positive decisions I have every made. The educational process along with the hands on training delivered brilliantly by Dr. Shipitofsky! My new gained knowledge and experience has given me the amazing opportunity to join a billion dollar industry, creating positive changes in peoples lives. I'm eternally grateful to Mr. Shipitofsky and SETS and would recommend the program to anyone interested in expanding their knowledge of the health, fitness, and well-being industry!"
Ernie Reyes Jr., NSCA-CPT, Actor/Martial Artist
Without the guidance of the School of Exercise Training and Science (SETS) and the director Dave, I would not be NEARLY as successful of a Certified Personal Trainer as I am today. I have used the knowledge gained from the SETS program to propel myself to the top of the fitness industry at a very large chain of gyms... and in a very short period of time. Within the past couple months in particular, I have effectively TRIPLED my income and been promoted--- TWICE! That said, on a personal level, Dave's assistance outside of helping me to pass the NSCA Exam has certainly had an equal impact on me... making sure that I found a suitable employer within weeks of graduation. James T, NSCA-CPT
We have employed several students who have completed the curriculum at SETS. We were confident the training they were provided was a good foundation toward their future as a personal trainer. They have all been successful trainers within our system. Bill Ross Owner, Major League Conditioning Centers
I went through the SETS program knowing I would get some insight on becoming a Personal Trainer. However, I came away with much more. Not only did it set me up to pass the NSCA certification test, I walked away with the confidence and experience to make a difference right away. The program is not just reading a book and taking a test, you get "hands on" experience and a complete understanding of anatomy, physiology and kinesiology of the human body. The personal attention you receive with Dave is immeasurable!. I would highly recommend this program to anyone interested in becoming a well educated Personal Trainer.
