About this Unit
Experience in the field of study is an essential ingredient in marketing an individual for employment either during the period of study or after graduation. Some professional associations require an applicant to have achieved a set number of hours in the workplace before membership can be conferred. Professional Practice provides students with an opportunity to observe practitioners in action and to learn in a practical "hands on" setting. Students will have the opportunity to see how knowledge and skills acquired in lectures and tutorials/laboratories can be applied and also relate theoretical concepts and skills to situations in sport/exercise-related settings. This unit is the first of two Professional Practice units which require a placement which is usually off campus.
