Diploma in Sport, Recreation and Exercise

Do you like being involved in sport and exercise? Do you want to help people improve their physical wellbeing and sporting ability without committing to degree-level study? Then this diploma is for you.

The Diploma in Sport, Recreation and Exercise will give you a foot in the door to the vibrant and people-oriented sport, health and exercise industries. You’ll learn how the human body is structured and how it functions so you can plan and organise exercise and health programmes for individuals and communities.

When you’ve completed this diploma you’ll be set up for further study or be ready to step out into a career in the dynamic and energetic fields of recreation, sport and exercise. In this programme, you’ll find yourself in EIT’s fully equipped sports science lab learning about sports research, and the next day be out on the school field teaching Kiwi kids how to throw and catch.
