Diploma of Leisure and Health

This qualification reflects the role of workers with responsibility for designing, implementing and evaluating health and leisure activities, and programs for clients in one or more sector areas. Work may be in residential facilities and/or in community agencies and day centres. Workers work under supervision or as sole practitioners and may be required to plan, coordinate and evaluate other workers and work teams within broad but generally well-defined guidelines. With this course, you will gain the ability to challenge and enhance their psychological, social, emotional, and physical well-being, and develop the confidence to seek out opportunities that utilise your skills. Clients may include those with disabilities, older people, youth, children, families, corporate organisations and people in respite.
