"Nick and Daniel really care about “passing it forward”, and helping out other professionals, and that’s reflected on this course. Truly a unique guide to study for the CPSS"

"The most comprehensive study guide available for the CPSS, this course helped me feel prepared to tackle the test!"
Postdoctoral Researcher @ Queen's University
"I can't thank you guys enough for the course. I sat for my CSCS in 2002 and outside of the GRE a few times in between then and now, I haven't taken a challenging test like the CPSS. The course and the deliverables couldn't have been better. They delivered the key information in a direct manner without fluff. The summary documents were helpful as I watched the videos. Overall, I doubt I would have passed the CPSS without the course. Thank you again for what you are doing to help progress the field!"

Head Lacrosse Coach @ Emory & Henry University
"I highly recommend the CPSS Study Course to anyone preparing for the CPSS exam and looking to deepen their knowledge of sport science. I passed the exam on my first attempt, and this course prepared me thoroughly from content knowledge to case studies and research review questions. Beyond the exam, as a physical therapist, I am most excited about how this course is influencing how I use data to optimize the rehabilitation process in the clinic."
Physical Therapist
"I am really glad that I found this course! I had taken the exam 6 months ago and failed by 1 scaled point! Using this course was a game changer the next time I took it. It helped narrow down what I needed to focus on. Having practice quizzes and videos also made a really big difference"
Student
"This is one of the best study guides I have ever utilized. Daniel and Nick do an excellent job in clearly explaining each chapter and the quiz questions are a great tool to see your progress. I recommend this course for anyone who wants to best prepare themselves for the CPSS exam, or to even learn more about being a sports scientist."
San Francisco 49ers, NFL

"The preparation process was quite challenging, as English is my second language and my reading speed is relatively slow. The chapter summaries saved me a great deal of time, and the quizzes helped me focus on the areas where my review was still insufficient."
