This subject examines the role of performance and culture in high performance sport and builds on principles from relevant preceding undergraduate subjects. It is designed for recent graduates rather than those currently working in high performance sport.

Content focuses on developing a strong understanding of responsibilities and issues regarding effective communication in athletic settings and environments. Students learn to do a thorough critique of relationships and practitioner effectiveness in a variety of sporting groups. They also practice building effective work environments and develop innovative training principles through key sports science concepts and mission-focused lesson planning. The subject has a strong focus on preparing practitioners with relevant skills that can be utilised in the fields of exercise science, exercise physiology and strength conditioning.
