Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about NYFA Nepal's courses, enrollment, and certification.
What international organization certifies the CPT course, and how is it recognized in Nepal?
The course prepares you for certification by the International Physical Fitness Association (IFPA), which is NCCA-accredited and globally recognized. In Nepal, our curriculum is aligned with CTEVT standards through our founder, Sukadev Karki, who serves as a wellness sector consultant to CTEVT.
How does the personal trainer course compare to online-only programs?
While online courses provide convenience, personal training is a practical profession. NYFA offers a balanced program with 72 hours of classroom theory and 72 hours of hands-on practical training. You'll practice lifting techniques, posture assessments, and live coaching in real-world gym settings, preparing you to work with clients from day one.

You must be at least 18 years old, hold a minimum +2 qualification, and have at least 6 months of active experience in any physical training style (weight training, calisthenics, athletics, or martial arts). Most importantly, you need a strong desire to learn and grow as a professional.
Do we get certified in CPR and First Aid?
Yes, safety is a core part of being a professional trainer. Module 09 of our curriculum is dedicated to Emergency Procedures (First Aid & CPR). We provide hands-on practice so you can manage emergency situations in any training facility.
How long is the CPT certification valid, and how is it renewed?
