CONNECTION TO THE INDUSTRY

The concept is used to prepare students for the world of work and provide them with opportunities:
  • to build their resume by working in the industry gaining practical experience
    to socialise into professional roles;
  • develop professional capabilities;
  • grow their professional network;
  • strengthen employability; and,
  • develop professional identity and professional values.


Work-Integrated Learning (WIL) is a broad term to describe a collaboration between the industry organisation and the university to engage students in a work-related learning experience as a part of their study.

The World Academy of Sport is ‘World Sport’s Education Partner’. Over the past 20 years WAoS has established itself as one of the most respected global partners in the development of education. Our partnership approach allows WAoS to cooperate with industry organisations and academic institutions to design, develop and deliver educational programmes.

We provide connections to industry experts who share their knowledge and experiences through written and video case studies tailored to support the content being delivered. The programmes benefit from the input of these experts as it ensures that the content is current and relevant to students.
