Abstract	This trends and issues paper considers the emerging presence of credentialing programs in the health, leisure, and movement professions in which such diverse occupations as health education teachers, aerobics instructors, exercise physiologists, dance therapists, community park managers, intramural directors, and military fitness instructors are included. The publication's purpose is to assist: (1) students in career planning; (2) professionals who evaluate credentialing options; (3) college and university faculty involved in curriculum design; and (4) professional organizations considering the development of a credentialing program. The document is organized into two parts. The first, entitled "General Trends and Issues in Credentialing," includes: a definition of credential; credentialing in health, leisure, and movement; and references and resources. Part two, "Credentialing Programs in Health, Leisure, and Movement," incorporates the most up-to-date information on several credentialing programs in each field including: parks, recreation, and leisure services; intramural-recreational sports administration; health education; dance education; dance/movement therapy; physical fitness/conditioning leadership; and physical fitness assessment.
