It truly is an honor to be recognized by a group of internationally acknowledged professionals. This distinction is especially humbling and very meaningful to me as I accurately understand the standards set and quality control that is upheld by the International Universities Strength and Conditioning Association.

About Level 6 Accreditation
Welcome to the IUSCA Level 6 Accredited International Strength and Conditioning Practitioner (aISCP) certification. This is a formal qualification that certifies higher level competencies within the domain of strength and conditioning (S&C). Widely recognized as the 'international standard' in S&C certification, Level 6 is the standard required for working within a professional or elite sports performance setting (equivalent to CSCS, ASCC, or ASCA L3).
​
Accreditation by the IUSCA recognises and supports the advancement of skills and education in Strength and Conditioning (S&C). The IUSCA Accreditation program has established a profile of skills that employers will be able to recognise in coaches and practitioners with IUSCA accreditation.
These qualities include:
​- The ability to utilise scientific thinking in a variety of contexts
- Breadth and depth of knowledge within S&C
- The ability to write and communicate with clarity and effectiveness
- Demonstrated technical abilities
- Significant experience as a practitioner (2 years’ full-time)
- The ability to review and evaluate their own and others' practice and performance
​
Assessment for Accreditation involves:
- Degree in a relevant field
- At least 2 years' full-time experience within S&C
- Completion and maintenance of a comprehensive portfolio of experience and reflections
- Reference from a senior level coach or administrator
- Video Assessment
​
Satisfactory completion of the assessment criteria will result in the candidate being awarded a title of IQF Level 6 Accredited International Strength and Conditioning Practitioner (aISCP).
