This subject introduces the learner to the theory and application of communication, group work and leadership within the context of recreation and recreation management. You will be expected to utilise this theory to explore and analyse your own and others' leadership and group skills.

It provides foundation knowledge which will be developed in further recreation and planning studies. The subject has no residential school for distance students.
