“We applaud these 40 outstanding coaches — each a beacon of excellence in our field,” states Eric McMahon, NSCA Coaching and Sport Science Program Manager. “Their unwavering commitment and exemplary service truly merit RSCC*E status, our highest professional honor.”

All coaches who earn RSCC designation are added to the NSCA’s searchable RSCC Registry as verification of their credentials. Additionally, every RSCC Coach participates in annual training and assessments beyond what is required of their peers and is held to the highest standard of practice in the profession.

Coaches seeking to earn the RSCC distinction need two years of verifiable experience working full-time as a designated strength and conditioning coach in a scholastic, collegiate, professional, national team, or private sport team organization, or embedded within a tactical (military or public safety) training unit as a dedicated strength and conditioning professional.
