This course of study involves taking a combination of Kinesiology and Education courses throughout the five years of study (same as if you were doing the after degree program). You would still select the school level you wish to teach and the corresponding required Kinesiology courses. The benefits are that you are immersed in the school setting much earlier in your program so that you can get a first hand look at the teaching profession. You get much more classroom experience which will be beneficial after graduation. You also have the opportunity to make many more contacts in the schools system that goes a long way to future employment. ClickBEd Integrated Programfor more information.
