The Graduate Diploma in Professional Kinesiology offers specialized training and clinical skill enhancement for both aspiring and practicing Kinesiology professionals. Participants will develop in-depth theoretical understanding and hands-on expertise to equip them for careers within the Kinesiologist's professional scope. This 12-month program begins each September, with full-time students completing all required coursework. The curriculum features four consecutive online courses paired with four intensive 5-day in-person practical sessions. This blended approach enables students to reside in Thunder Bay or elsewhere while traveling to campus for the practical components. The flexible course structure may permit students to balance studies with employment. Additionally, the program incorporates a 200-hour practicum, which can be completed locally, nationally, or internationally with an approved supervisor and suitable facility.
