Services covered by AEPs include cardiovascular, metabolic, neurological, musculoskeletal, cancers, kidney, respiratory/pulmonary and mental health, and any other conditions for which there is evidence that exercise can improve the client’s clinical status.
This advanced course, which includes 500 hours of practicum experience, will extend your knowledge of the scientific basis of sport and exercise and its effect on both healthy individuals and those with chronic and complex health conditions. You will hone your skills in the clinical application of exercise-based disease prevention, rehabilitation and performance improvement.
If you have an above average academic record, you may apply to progress to the Bachelor of Clinical Exercise Physiology with Honours or the research-based Master of Science.
