Areas of Study

The role of a Diversity and Inclusion Officer encompasses fostering an environment of accessibility, equity, and acceptance across various settings. This Area of Study focuses on equipping individuals with the knowledge and skills to facilitate inclusion for people with disabilities and deliver effective recreation sessions that cater to diverse populations.
Develop your knowledge and skills to work in the fitness industry through developing and implementing an advanced fitness program aimed at achieving fitness for peak performance. You will work with a strength and conditioning coach and/or other professionals to achieve peak fitness in preparation for a fitness challenge or sporting competition.
More than six out of ten who call Australia home have had little or no contact with Aboriginal people. The chasm and disconnect between the First Australians and the rest of the nation is vast. The Australian Stories Area of Study shines a light on this divide through the documentary ‘The Australian Dream’. Students will explore Aboriginal Australia in all its beauty, hope, culture, history and tradition.
In the Athlete, students will gain on understanding of what it takes to perfect their skills. Students will learn how to perform a skill analysis and design and implement a development program. Students will explore and apply skill improvement tools and feedback mechanisms and compare skill abilities of varying levels of athletes. In this Area of Study, students will explore the human body, health and fitness-related concepts and apply them to their sport. This Area of Study pays particular attention to athlete strength and conditioning as students develop their understanding of what it takes to be a ‘strong’ athlete in their sport.

Participate in the SEDA College WA Game On season and develop your skills and broaden your knowledge about the game you love. In this area of study, students put their skills and conditioning into match practice, as well as gain a broader understanding of what it takes to run a sporting competition. Participate in Game On, show off your skills and explore other aspects of the game such as sports psychology, officiating, fixtures and resulting.

MyPLAN is a digital portfolio that supports students to track their individual goals, achievements, experiences, and growth during their time at SEDA College WA. Underpinning MyPLAN are the Transferable Work Skills and Personal Habits, which have been identified as important attributes, attitudes, and mindsets to develop in order to succeed at SEDA and beyond. Development of the MyPLAN portfolio, and the Transferable Work Skills and Personal Habits, is supported with timetabled MyPLAN sessions in class and regular MyPLAN meetings between teachers, parents, and students.

In this Area of Study, students are engaged in creating a marketing proposal for a sporting partner (i.e. the Fremantle Dockers) to promote their new community holiday programs. This proposal needs to compete with others in the industry for a multi-year social media content creation role. It requires leveraging social media content creation expertise and sports coaching experience to develop strategies that increase brand reach and grow the holiday programs. This proposal is crucial for showcasing the candidate’s ability to effectively engage with the community and promote the partner’s initiatives.
