This home-study eCourse is based on a 36-credit programme, including 13 NZQA unit standards, and is equivalent to a 360-hour Level 5 course. In Australia, it meets the standards of the Diploma of Kinesiology HLT52415.
The course satisfies the requirements of the IKC Touch for Health School and the IKC Professional School. It is clearly written and accessible, with all technical terms carefully explained. Student progress and learning outcomes are supported through a marked Student Assessment Journal and a final written online evaluation.
Students begin by exploring the human organism at chemical and cellular levels. They then progress to the study of tissues, organs, and the major systems of the body, including their structure and function.
By the end of the course, students are expected to be able to describe, in clear anatomical terms, the respiratory, integumentary, urinary, cardiovascular, digestive, reproductive, and nervous systems, with special reference to the brain and senses. Students will also learn to identify and describe the human skeleton, different types of joints, muscle structure, and the origin, insertion, and action of major muscles of the body.
As a non-examinable bonus, the course also introduces medical terminology to support clearer communication with colleagues, health professionals, and other practitioners.
The course content includes references to useful YouTube videos and other online resources, including high-quality 3D modelling tools, to further enhance the learning experience.
