We love keeping good company, so if you’re a learner who is interested in getting into the Sport Science and Fitness industry, then you’re invited to attend a ‘Futures in Sport Science’ orientation programme.
For 2 days you will enjoy presentations given by the various professionals based at the SSISA (with a question and answer slot), walk-abouts and activities that will give you the chance to see what a job in the Sport Science Fitness industry actually involves.
The orientation days typically start at 09h00 and finish by 15h00. Some of the career paths covered include:
- Fitness
- Sport Science
- Biokinetics
- Physiotherapy
- Sport Psychology
- Outreach in sport
- Nutrition.

Important information
- Wear casual clothing. Think tracksuits - as some activities are fairly physical.
- Bring a pen and paper.
- Bring food or lunch money. There are vending machines and a kiosk for healthy options.
- Relax. You won’t be asked to complete any assessments.
- If you attend both days, the SSISA will give you a letter of participation.
- The programme is free. It won’t cost you a cent.
- Space is limited, so work shadows are on a ‘first come, first served basis’.
- If you’ve emailed your name, learning institution and contact number to us and you don’t hear to the contrary within 5 days, this means that you have been accepted.
- If for some reason you can’t make your orientation, please let us know so that we can free up your spot for someone else.
No individual work shadowing is offered and booking is essential. So get in touch with given@ssisa.com or phone 021-6595609 and reserve your place today.
