"Happy Holidays everyone,
Thank you to the community for all of the support, trust, and confidence you have given us. None of this would have happened without the contributions of the entire Certification & Training Department, Administrative & Training Staff, and our Accreditation Team: Lynne Pitts, Dave Castro, Frank Faulk, and Dr. Wallace Judd. It took countless hours of education, effort, and investment from all levels of the staff. We are blessed to have such a great team.
So, what does this mean for Level 1 Trainers?
Your Level 1 Trainer Certificate will still afford all the benefits as it did in the past - the ability to train others using CrossFit methods and the opportunity to apply for affiliation. Now, it has the added benefit of being accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) http://www.ansi.org/about_ansi/introduction/introduction.aspx?menuid=1
Is this retroactive for all Level 1 Trainers?
All Level 1 Trainer Certificate holders who have taken and passed the Level 1 Test now hold ANSI accredited Level 1 Trainer Certificates.

Thanks again,
