"How to Coach an Athlete" is a self-paced specialized continuing-education course (one of three courses in PN's Advanced Certificate in Nutrition Coaching for Athletes). Scoring 75%+ on the four unit quizzes yields a Certificate of Completion plus digital badge that can be submitted for CECs; the evidence describes no renewal, expiration, or recertification requirement for this course credential. (PN's Terms of Use state PN Certified professionals must renew their credential every 2 years, but that clause refers to the PN Certification Programs, not this CE course.)
