Course participants who attend the sessions but who do not wish to do the written exam and practical assignment cannot be certified as a SynerLift Specialist. However, they are welcome to explore this training system for their own general knowledge and use it for their own benefit - but they are prohibited from identifying themselves as a certified SynerLift Specialist, they are not recognized as SynerLift qualified instructors, and they are specifically prohibited from using SynerLift equipment and method of training in any circumstances other than for their own personal use.

Maintaining your SynerLift Specialist certification

Once you become a certified SynerLift Specialist, you are responsible for maintaining a high level of knowledge and for keeping up-to-date with the latest developments in your field. To demonstrate the ongoing commitment to excellence in training necessary to maintaining your certification, you must complete relevant professional development courses provided, recommended, or pre-approved by Strength Revolution Inc. every 18 months after your graduation date.

All SynerLift Specialist students and alumni have access to a selection of professional development courses recommended or provided by Strength Revolution Inc. No renewal fee is required to maintain your SynerLift Specialist certification via these courses.

Using a non-SynerLift course to maintain your certification requires pre-approval by Strength Revolution Inc. If you wish to propose such a course, please provide the course name, provider, course summary and the instructor’s name. We will review the course, how it relates or strengthens your SynerLift Specialist skills, and have an interview with you over video-chat or phone to determine if it satisfies the professional development requirements for maintaining certification or not.

If accepted, a $200 fee is charged for renewal with a non-SynerLift course.

Renewal of expired certification (18 months or more)
