HLSC 4823U – Small Business Practice and Entrepreneurship for Health Professionals


A growing number of health professional graduates will end up running their own small business. The course is an introduction to running a business and entrepreneurship related to kinesiology and other health professions. The first part of the course will cover health record requirements, privacy legislation, basic accounting practices, employment law relevant to small businesses and basic marketing including the role of social media. The course will also include a unit on entrepreneurship beginning with idea generation and opportunity recognition through to venture creation; initially in a kinesiology context, but with reference to nursing and allied health professions. Although the entrepreneurship component focuses on establishing a new venture, this unit will also be worthwhile for those who are interested in working creatively to create new ventures or programs within an existing organization.
