Deadline rule
Must register for a recertification option prior to the expiration date shown on the instructor profile; expired instructors must re-attend a previously held or new Certification.

Elite is maintained by selecting the Elite Unified Recertification option and retesting all Elite requirements (Swing, Get-up, Bent Press, Jerk, Snatch Test + DL strength test and barbell MP + OAPU/OAOLPU). Passing all modalities gives a 3-year expiration date for all four certifications (SFG I, SFG II, SFL, SFB). Recertification pathways: attend next StrongFirst Certification, apply for onsite recertification at a Special Event, assist at a Certification (no tuition), or online recertification. No CEU/contact-hour requirement stated; renewal is skills/strength retesting.
