This course is predominantly practical focusing on exercise program delivery either in-person or remotely and draws knowledge and skills from a range of sport and exercise disciplines. The course reviews, reinforces and further develops knowledge and skills from previous courses. For students who seek to work in professional roles such as sports scientists this course provides the opportunity to master the instruction and leadership of individual and group exercise sessions that are based on best practice. The course will address the specific health, fitness and/or sports performance goals of apparently healthy clients across the lifespan but will also involve the planning and delivery of exercise programs for clients with injuries, particular medical conditions or clients from populations with special needs. Students will be provided with a clear understanding of their professional responsibilities in ensuring safe practice and appreciate the need to work with the appropriately qualified health professionals. Specific exercise programs designed for clients by another appropriately qualified health professionals, will be analysed by students for them to understand their roles in providing possible input, be able to conscientiously follow special instructions in relation to the implementation, monitoring and, report the progress of the individual completing the program.

This course will enable students to develop the knowledge and skills necessary to deliver an exercise program either in-person or remotely in individual and group sessions to meet their specific goals and needs. The course outlines and provides practical experiences in regarding how to deliver an exercise program for (apparently) healthy clients and those with pathology or injury that has been prescribed by an appropriately qualified health professional. The delivery of exercise programs for clients for groups and clients across the lifespan, including those with special needs will also be outlined.

To pass this course, students must attend 80% of the residential school or practical classes. Student non-compliance with the attendance requirement will mean the student cannot pass the course.

On successful completion of this course students should be able to:

1. Interpret data obtained during a client assessment, including identifying and explaining the common contraindications for participation in exercise and the associated risks, and use this information to safely deliver physical activity and exercise-based interventions.
2. Analyse a broad range of exercise modalities and select appropriate exercises and equipment to suit the needs and abilities of clients with consideration of the social determinants of health, including the application of appropriate technology to support both in-person and telepractice service delivery.
3. Deliver evidence-based exercise interventions that have been prescribed by a qualified health professional that meet the needs and preferences of clients and ensure client safety for both healthy clients and clients with medical conditions, injuries or disabilities.
4. Apply the principles of motor control and learning, functional anatomy and biomechanics to assess movement and to recognise dysfunctional movement patterns and unsafe exercise technique and select and apply learning cues and movement progressions for teaching and correcting movement and exercise technique.
5. Select and apply a range of evidence-based tools and methods to monitor exercise load and progress based on the needs of individuals, and identify, interpret, report and take appropriate action regarding adverse signs and symptoms that may arise during exercise, sport and recovery.
6. Evaluate and record client progress during an exercise-based intervention and communicate with the client, and families, carers and other health and exercise professionals where appropriate.
7. Integrate behavioural strategies to enhance exercise adherence.
