Portage College is launching a Kinesiology and Sport Studies Diploma program that will prepare students for careers in fitness. The program will use in-class instruction as well as work placements to teach students about topics such as human body movement, fitness classes, and fitness tests. “Portage College’s new Kinesiology and Sport Studies Diploma is the first of its kind in rural northeastern Alberta, providing local students and athletes with unprecedented access to education in health and sport sciences,” said Portage Dean of Foundational Learning, University Transfer and Arts Stephanie Solarz. “This unique program empowers our community with pathways to careers in wellness, sports, and fitness, right here at home.”
