The 3rd year of my degree is mostly practical, applying the theory we are supposed to have learnt in the previous years with:
Paper 1 Work-based Co-op = a work placement, I start at my local Configure Express Gym next week, I need to prepare a proposal for a project while there and a contract with a plan and objectives of what I expect to achieve while with them. Then journal my activities and hours (need to do 120hrs) with an evaluation of my time there. The idea is to gain an insight to whether this is or similar is where I want to work in the future or not.
2. Exercise Prescription = practising giving health and fitness assessments, teaching correct techniques and procedures to avoid injuries, designing our own websites a good skill to have for those wanting to create their private businesses.
3. Strategic Sports Marketing = preparing a marketing proposal for the Northland Mystics Netball.
4. Exercise Physiology = preparing a portfolio with evidence of our understanding of the principles and concepts of physiology in exercise.
and that's just for the first semester. For my next and last semester, there will be a different set of 4 papers with different challenges. Exciting stuff but daunting too. But I am enjoying the course so much, I know I am in the right place
