Sport, Fitness & Recreation

​Looking for hands-on training? It doesn’t get much more hands-on than The Gordon’s Sport, Fitness and Recreation courses.  

Strongly linked to the local Geelong and Colac  industry, our sport, fitness and outdoor education courses are designed in consultation with industry contacts, based on the employment opportunities in the local area. We teach hands-on, practical skills based on these opportunities, and use external providers and industry specialists to help with our training.

The Gordon is equipped with its own gym training facility, and students are also exposed to local gyms and fitness centres. Like many programs, students also undertake on-the-job placements which they can independently choose based on areas that are relevant and interesting to them and their career goals.

Working with the Events team, we’ve also developed a new dual qualification in Sport and Recreation Administration and Events, based on a growing demand for specialist skills across these two industries.
