Sport, Leisure and Travel
Do you have an interest in fitness and health? Are you passionate about sport? Or have you always wanted to travel? With interests such as these, choosing the right course is less about gaining a qualification, and more about doing something you really love. A complete range of courses in Sports Development, Coaching & Fitness; Sport & Exercise Science; and Travel & Tourism gives you a great opportunity to achieve the lifestyle and career you’ve always dreamed of.
If you’re interested in sport and fitness, our Sport courses give you the chance to become involved in a very exciting industry, offering many different career pathways. Perhaps your perfect job would involve advising professional sportsmen and women on diet or the rehabilitation of their sports injuries, or becoming a personal trainer.
Whichever Sport course you choose you’ll have access to our fitness centre, sports hall, playing fields and all weather playing area, plus well qualified and experienced staff.
Whilst at college you’ll have the opportunity to participate in sport, help to coach students and organise sporting events. You’ll also be able to visit sports facilities, conduct fitness tests and devise training programmes for yourself and others.
Active sports teams this year included football, hockey (men’s and mixed), rugby, basketball, golf and volleyball, and for 2009/10 we intend to add netball & tennis.
If sports and fitness sounds a little too energetic, why not consider a career in travel? Find out what it’s really like to be an air cabin crew member or a holiday representative, learn about exotic holiday destinations, perhaps plan a few holidays or visit some tourist attractions yourself.
Alongside academic qualifications, our travel students can also study for vocational travel certificates, including Report Representatives, Air Passenger Service Agents, Certificate in Travel & Tourism, Air Fares and Ticketing & Air Cabin Crew Certificate
Whatever you choose, we’ll support you all the way, with Specialist Resources that include:
- Fully equipped fitness centres, playing fields and an all weather playing area
- Links with local travel and leisure employers, as well as sporting bodies
- Participation in national, regional and local sports events.
