To learn the business of sport and recreation, you have to move beyond the theoretical and work with industry professionals. That's why we created our Guided Field Experience opportunities—special courses that put you at the center of the action.
These courses are very popular, and we limit the number of students we can enroll so that everyone can get personalized attention—so apply early!
