In this unit, you will enhance your professional development in exercise and sport science by becoming a reflective practitioner. Additionally, you will gain authentic practical exercise delivery via work integrated learning, as well as practically focused assessments, which will allow you to gain the skills that are required of a graduating exercise and sport science professional. This will involve working with a variety of populations under the supervision of appropriate health or exercise and sport science practitioners, during which time you will further develop your skills in the development and delivery of exercise and sports science related activities.

Feedback from Student Feedback
Students commented that practicum processes and not being able to start on the first day of term can be frustrating for them if they are organised prior to start of term.
It is recommended that practicum processes are continually reviewed and streamlined to enhance student experience. Considerations will need to be made for site availability and suitability.
