Introducing the first of its kind - Certification Course in Body Composition Assessment!
Have you had questions about body composition assessment methods, like:

  • Which one is the most accurate?
  • Am I performing it correctly?
  • Can I still measure my client if they have not followed my directions in preparation?
  • How often can I make a specific body composition measurement?
  • How can I reduce the error of my measurements?
  • What is the smallest change I can detect with my measurements?

We have the answers to these questions and more!

GHBCI has developed a fully online course titled “Body Composition Practitioner Level I”. The 10 course modules each contain one or more lectures, a reading assignment, exercises, and a quiz. The content of the lectures is supported by ACSM’s Body Composition Assessment textbook, which contains the required reading assignments for the course. The most commonly used body composition assessment methods are explained along with discussions of how to reduce the error of your measurements and how to choose the correct method for any situation.

This unique course was developed by 2 experts in the field - Dr. Laurie Milliken and Dr. Tim Lohman. They are also the editors of ACSM’s Body Composition Assessment textbook. The course is fully online and very affordable. You will receive the 10 modules and the ACSM’s Body Composition Assessment text as an eBook for only $375.
