HLSC 5325G - Practical Skills in Kinesiology


This course is designed to develop competency in practical skills required of entry-level Kinesiology graduates.

The emphasis of this course will be on clinical evaluation skills, fitness assessment and exercise prescription for individuals across the lifespan and across the health spectrum. Health, performance and work-related scenarios will be covered in most modules.
