Module Description: This module provides an in-depth skills in the exercise based rehabilitation, which will include complex factors effecting performance and recovery, monitoring of athletes and clients, performance enhancement and advanced exercise late stage rehabilitation and return to performance criteria.
 
Learning Outcomes
On successful completion of this module the learner will be able to:
# Learning Outcome Description
LO1 Demonstrate the scientific principles underpinning the components of strength and conditoning in end stage rehab through competent practical demonstration and coaching.
LO2 Critically analyse and appraise the various strength and conditioning training methods in training a patient/athete returning from injury and preparing for re-introduction to performance settings.
LO3 Demonstrate and critically analyse the late stage rehabilitation phase and return to performance criteria for specific injuries

Module Workload

Workload: Full Time
Workload Type Workload Category Contact Type Workload Description Frequency Average Weekly Learner Workload Hours
Lecture Contact The purpose of the lecture is to provide the learner with a broad overview of each topic in the syllabus. Learners will be required to supplement this with significant independent reading and research in the area. Lectures will be in a format that encourages active learning and learner autonomy and will form the basis for further critical independent enquiry. 12 Weeks per Stage 1.00 12
Laboratory Contact The key applied competency skills are developed by learners in a laboratory environment whilst working both individually and in groups. Practical classes allow learners to explore and develop real world applied learning environment in the application of theory. In addition practical experience enables learners to develop mastery of advanced specialised skills and practices associated with each module. 12 Weeks per Stage 2.00 24
Independent Learning Non Contact Independent learning encourages the development of learner self-direction and assessment thereby supporting learners to acquire relevant knowledge and experience to continue their professional development 15 Weeks per Stage 5.93 89
Total Weekly Contact Hours 3.00
