A key to the success of the CEP program is the tremendous amount of practical experience that students receive during their training. In addition to working in the on-campus La Crosse Exercise and Health Program, students work in close cooperation with the two area medical facilities: Gundersen Health Systems and Mayo Clinic Health System - Franciscan Healthcare. This cooperation gives students an opportunity to become involved in clinical aspects of exercise testing and cardiopulmonary rehabilitation not available at the University.
A major goal of the program is to prepare students to sit for the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) Registered Clinical Exercise Physiologist (RCEP) examination at the end of their on-campus training. Over the past 25 years, the first time pass rate for La Crosse graduates has exceeded 90%.
