We believe our Sport & Rec courses are the best value for money, and most enjoyable courses in Australia. Have an interest in,
and enjoy the Outdoor Recreation, Sport, Fitness or Recreation industries? Well this is the course for you!
This course is aimed at preparing students for a Junior Management level career in Sport, Outdoor Recreation or Fitness, or for
those wishing to enter the industry at a level appropriate to their skills and knowledge. At this level students are learning just
about everything they will need to know about a sector of the industry, from diet, coaching, programming, business skills and
leadership.
Course Length:
12 months (52 weeks, made up of 40 weeks tuition, and 12 weeks holiday).
Students may commence study with induction on any Monday as approved by the Director, and general classes operate all weeks
except holiday periods (see Term and Holiday sheet).
Cost: From $6,200 (total) or $120 (per week). Excludes OSHC (see separate sheet for OSHC prices if required). *Discounts may
apply
Inclusions & Exclusions:
This course is available at all campuses; however the range of activities varies between campuses. The fees include everything
that students require to complete the qualification, including administration fees, texts, travel to included excursions, and
equipment hire. Free use of the Fitness Centre at the relevant campus is also included, for the period of the Qualification course.
Pre-requisites:
 English to a “well” level is preferred. You may be required to complete an Eagle Academy English test if either your Agent, or
Eagle Academy staff feel it is necessary (Failing the English test may result in your enrolment being cancelled).
 Completion of Year 11 (Australia), or equivalent.
 An interest in a sector of the sports, fitness, or recreation industries, and a desire to work in the Sport, Recreation and Fitness
industries. If surfing is selected students must consider themselves competent swimmers with some experience in the surf.
 Students can apply for Recognition of Prior Learning, or Direct Credit. This may reduce course time. See Student Handbook for
details.
ATTENDANCE IS NOT RECORDED OR MONITORED FOR VISA COMPLIANCE PURPOSES. However, students are expected to attend
15 hours per week, with a further 5 hours per week delivered as Distance Education (Study done at home in the form of
completion of set tasks or Workbooks). Failure to attend regularly will see progress suffer, and students may be reported for
unsatisfactory progress.
PROGRESS IS MONITORED FOR VISA COMPLIANCE PURPOSES:
The Academy has implemented the DEEWR-DIAC Course Progress Policy and Procedures. More detail is available in the Student
Handbook, but basically a student will be reported if they fail to gain competency in half of the units completed in a study period.
Competency for each Unit is determined in up to four ways. Assessment occurs on a weekly/ fortnightly basis, hence regular
attendance is important:
1.
2.
3.
4.
A short knowledge test;
Observation of skills, and oral questioning;
Completion of activities.
Completion of Workbooks.

Partner Organisations:
The Eagle Academy will partner up with the Broadbeach Surf School to deliver some of the specialised skills associated with many
of these areas.
Timetable
At each campus the classes for theory may vary and excursions are held 3 times per term (of 10 weeks). There are tuition times
from 3.30pm each day where you can get extra assistance should you require it, and you may access the Fitness Centres for
supervised practice on most days, included in your fee. Ask your campus for a specific Timetable.
The excursion days will see you do most, if not all of the outdoor recreational activities listed above, depending on weather,
selected campus, and availability at the time. Students are welcome to join in with other campuses excursion days to increase
their activity range, but must supply their own transport to do so.
This course is available to both domestic students and international students wishing to study on a Student Visa. Visa students
