Professional recognition
This course is designed to prepare graduates for work as an Accredited Exercise Physiologist (AEP), a title that is awarded by Exercise and Sports Science Australia (ESSA). At present, ESSA are considering an application from the School for the course to be accredited under the National University Course Accreditation Program (NUCAP).
Federal Government approval for AEPs to join the Medicare list of allied health professions only became effective in 2006. Therefore, the next five to ten years will see the professional evolution of this new field of work.
