A Common Sense Approach to Evaluating Movement
At a glance
Accreditation
No accreditation on record — status unknown. Absence of a claim is recorded honestly rather than guessed.
Renewal & CEU requirements
The evidence explicitly states this offering "is not a certification course," so no recertification cycle, CEU total, ethics, or CPR requirement applies. FMS notes CEs are profession-dependent and listed per course; a Certificate of Completion (downloadable from the account's Completed Courses tab) is what learners submit to their licensing board for CE purposes. Separately, access to FMS online courses is tied to the FMS Academy membership, which is valid one year and renews at $200/year (initial purchase $799 USD, discounted for prior FMS course purchasers); auto-renewal can be turned off, ending access at expiration.
