Just chiming in to say that at one of my Bike shops they carry Specialized and their fitter went to a school specific to that brand for certification. The guy doing my fitting now on my Wilier was trained by a guy who had been doing fittings for like 20 years. He has been doing fittings for a long time himself, but I'm not sure he has had formal training at a school. By far, he is a better fitter than the one trained at Specialized - at least that was my perception having used them both. I think some things about fitting can't be taught, but comes with experience, so IMO, that would be an important factor for me and I would definitely ask about that. Don't forget to get a copy of measurements and changes made.
