The Z-Health Master Trainer Program helps Z Specialists take their coaching skills to the highest level.
Being a professional, world-class educator demands exceptional levels of skill in a variety of areas. In addition to long and intense preparation, Z-Health Master Trainer candidates must have an extensive Z-Health and academic body of knowledge. They are required to participate in a 9-month testing process, culminating in this six-day live-testing event.
To become a Z-Health Master Trainer, candidate requirements include:
1. A generally accepted body of knowledge
The Z-Health Performance system is a combination of hard science, real world practical experience, world-class assessment skills, and mastery of the “art” of coaching others. As a result, the required body of knowledge to become a Z-Health Performance Master Trainer is extensive. Vital elements of both academic and physical skills from anatomy, physiology, kinesiology, sports performance training, and movement therapy — interwoven with an in-depth understanding of human neurology and neural plasticity — are required.
2. Long and intense preparation
The requisite skills to qualify as a Master Trainer were developed through years of hard work and success in applying the information contained in each Z-Health Performance certification. In most professions, this level of preparation includes EITHER academic or physical skills. Z-Health requires BOTH. Z-Health Performance Master Trainers have typically invested thousands of hours in practice, training, education, and application prior to obtaining the designation.
3. A rigorous testing process and demonstration of knowledge through certification
To become a Z-Health Performance Master Trainer, each candidate has obtained the first four Z-Health Performance certifications. Additionally, each Master Trainer was required to participate in a 9-month testing process, culminating in a six-day live-testing event. During this process, candidates were tested continually on their academic and practical understanding and knowledge of the Z-Health Performance system. They were evaluated on professionalism, public speaking capacity, instructional competence, client assessment, and management, as well as “on the spot” testing in which they are tasked with demonstrating and teaching any skill or concept from any Z-Health Performance course chosen at random.
Because we set exceptionally high standards in Z-Health, to earn the full designation of Master Trainer, a score of 90% or greater was required. Provisional standing was given to those scoring from 75-89.9%.
4. Continuing education for life
Z-Health Performance is a life-long learning process dedicated to the professional and personal growth of every individual in our programs. This means that our courses are continually evolving and improving as we learn. Z-Health Performance Master Trainers are expected to participate in ongoing coursework, practice, and research each year — with their professional status subject to regular review.
5. Conforming to ethical standards with a mechanism for enforcement
The Z-Health Performance Master Trainer program demands an exceptional level of professional conduct. As mentioned above, each trainer’s status is subject to regular review (yearly at a minimum) which leads to either retention or revocation of the credential.
Once certified, Master Trainers teach Z-Health Certification Courses, assist in the development of new products and materials, and work as mentors and coaches for newer Z-Health Performance practitioners.
The Z-Health Master Trainer program has helped fully establish Z-Health Performance as a unique profession — one that is separate from but complimentary to all other health, fitness, and athletic development professions.
