SUPERVISED PLACEMENT
Changes relating to the number of supervision hours required for accreditation have been introduced by the accreditation body, Exercise and Sport Science Australia (ESSA), in recognition of challenges in the current COVID-19 climate. The change in required hours impacts on the level of accreditation students are eligible for at the end of the course. A minimum of 80 hours of supervision is required for provisional accreditation in which students then have 2 years to obtain the remaining hours to get the 140 hours required for full ESSA accreditation.
