STRENGTHEN YOUR CAREER IN LEISURE AND FITNESS MANAGEMENT
Develop the skills needed to establish and manage a successful Leisure Industry Service or Facility. This is an essential course for anyone already working in the leisure or fitness industries, those wanting to advance their career in these industries and those looking for that foot in the door. The course is based on three core modules which focus on Leisure facility management, leisure facility marketing and project management. Students may then select three modules from an extensive range of relevant electives.
