About
The knowledge covered in the Associate Degree of Sports Business is based on the business operations of the sports industry.
The sector in Australia has transitioned from largely semi-professional to its current status as a multimillion-dollar corporate industry. Sports management is a global field in which Australians have earned an enviable reputation for excellence. ACPE is helping to build that reputation by delivering an innovative degree, taught by lecturers with demonstrated real-world expertise.
Learning outcomes are maximised through constant engagement between students and the Australian sports industry, as well as flexible modes of learning (face to face, online, blended) to suit individual requirements. The Associate Degree, completed in only 2 years of full time study or equivalent part time study, is especially appropriate for students juggling work and study commitments.
Upon completion of this course, students can consider articulation to the Bachelor of Sports Business (Leadeship).
