Online Physiology Program

The Center for Professional Education at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in association with Fitness Technologies, Inc., a leader in fitness and allied health information transfer have begun accepting enrollment in Personal Physiology: Your Body & You, a new ERAU Premier Series in continuing education courses offered in a convenient, self-paced, online format.

The courses, originally developed to assist allied health and fitness professionals, are intended for individuals who are interested in improving their physical well-being. Whether your job requires strenuous activity or simply sitting at a desk, there are techniques available to assist you in enhancing your ability to deal with physical and psychological stress.

Embry-Riddle is launching this program in partnership with Dr. Frank I. Katch, a world renowned researcher, author, and lecturer on human physiology. The courses provide a scientific foundation in interval training, resistance training, unilateral training, and plyometrics, as well as an understanding of societal factors and warning signs that point to problems such as eating disorders and overtraining. Participants read course materials online and take learning assessments at their own pace. The university provides Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for successful completion of its professional education courses.
