What does the accredited NASM-CPT exam cost?

The U.S. exam-only listing was US$599 on November 12, 2026. That option is for the accredited certification exam and excludes NASM preparation materials. Check your NASM account first if you bought a program or bundle. It may already include the exam or an eligible retest.

NASM’s administrative fee schedule lists US$199 for a personal trainer retest or extension. Programs and memberships can change what you owe. Confirm your eligibility deadline, what is already included, and the actual charge before buying a new attempt or an extension.

Check the full exam name before paying. The open-book Personal Trainer Certificate is a separate option, even when it appears in the same account. If you already hold a voucher or are enrolled through a school, ask NASM to locate the existing exam entitlement before you buy an exam-only entry.
