SCOND6004 Delivery and Program Design for Endurance Qualities
This course will prepare students to design training programs to develop endurance qualities for athletes in accordance with the demands of their sport. Students will learn to determine the energy system contributions, aerobic power, anaerobic threshold and other demands to optimise training adaptations. The physiological mechanisms underpinning endurance performance will be used to provide evidence for program design. The application of various endurance training methods such as long slow distance, interval training and fartlek will be investigated. Students will learn the effect of various endurance training tasks on the development of other physical qualities, and how to program to minimise any potential interference effects. Students will understand and conduct field tests of endurance and will be able to interpret a VO2 max test with a comprehensive report indicating training recommendations.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $2,124
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $997
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
