Medical Exercise Specialist Study Group
Workshop Details
MES Study Group Starts – February 22nd, 2022!!
“I really want to become a certified MES, but don’t have the time and the resources to commit to a $1,595 lump-sum, 2-day on-site seminar that requires travel to another city, lodging, and other accommodations.” If you’ve uttered these words, the Medical Exercise Specialist Study Group (MES Study Group) is for you! The Medical Exercise Training Institute (METI) listened to you and designed a certification program with the busy and cost-conscious fitness professional in mind. The MES Study Group offers the best of both worlds – a LIVE seminar/workshop and distance education. Travel time and expense can make it difficult to attend workshops in person, and the MES Study Group is a great option. Research has shown that study group participants are far more successful in pursuit of their goals – don’t you want that success for yourself? ACT NOW! The next MES Study Group starts on June 22nd (MESSG Video). We will broadcast each study group session live from Houston. Now you can participate in a LIVE presentation of the MEST materials along with demos of medical exercise assessment and exercise techniques!!
