Health, Exercise and Nutrition

About

With an increase in human life expectancy and prevalence of chronic disease and illness, it is vital for health improvement practitioners to understand the impact of not only physical activity, but nutrition relating to health, fitness, and disease.

In the first year, students can examine core theoretical components relevant to physical activity, exercise, health, and nutrition. During second and third year of study, this theory is put into practice and vocationally relevant skills can be developed through workplace shadowing and practical assessments.

The course supports students to develop applied skills in evaluating and assessing a range of clients. It provides students with an opportunity to learn how to confidently provide suitable physical activity and healthy eating recommendations, and design, implement, and evaluate health promotion projects. Students will have the chance to gain an understanding of a broad array of components in local public health work.

Students can achieve industry recognition by completing optional modules in exercise instruction, personal training, and exercise prescription for health.
