- An appreciation of current and emerging issues and perspectives in global and national sporting communities.
- Commitment to the acquisition, critical evaluation and application of knowledge and policies relevant to sport development and management
- Ability to accurately and effectively communicate information, arguments and analyses using written, visual and oral reporting formats.
- Advanced knowledge of ethics and ethical standards relevant to sport development; ability to operate ethically within the workplace and community.
- An understanding of the development of sport in local, national and international contexts in two fundamental ways: development of sport and development through sport. The first is based on sport being valued for its own sake where it is viewed as a public good. The second refers to the strategic use of sport to address and achieve specific social, educational, health, economic, and political objectives.
