The unit prepares students to review, evaluate and communicate evidence-based training and coaching information. Students undertake a critical review on a current training issue, and then present this in both written and oral professional contexts. Through examination of their own coaching performances students will apply reflective and analytical skills to evaluate and improve their own coaching practices. A range of evaluation and assessment training and performance situations are explored so that on successful completion of this subject students will have completed industry qualifications in Course Presenting, Mentor Training and Assessor Training for sport.
