New ACHPER Victoria annual partnership announcement: Victoria University (VU)

ACHPER Victoria is proud to work alongside and be supported by organisations and companies committed to improving societal health outcomes through the promotion and support of high quality health and physical education. We are excited to announce two new annual partners; the Transport Accident Commission (TAC), and Victoria University (VU).

VU has a long history supporting Physical Education commencing in the early 1970s with Footscray Institute of Technology, VU’s predecessor institution, which was among the first in Australia to offer courses in Physical Education.

VU’s outstanding reputation in sport, exercise science and active living is underpinned by a long tradition of extensive course offerings, major research, international partnerships, state-of-the-art facilities and expert academic staff from around the world. This has led VU to be ranked 12th in the world for Sport Science.

VU offers over 40 sports-related courses at undergraduate, postgraduate and vocational education (TAFE) levels, including health, physical education and sport and recreation. It has affiliations with over 350 sporting bodies and undertakes high quality research which has a significant impact resolving the challenges of the sporting industry, locally, nationally and globally. The prestigious Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2018-19 has VU ranked as one of the top 2% universities in the world.

The VU / ACHPER Victoria partnership will include delivery of knowledge exchange events, professional development events for ACHPER Victoria members and activities to support regionally based teachers and students.

ACHPER Victoria would like to thank VU for its support and we look forward to a continued collaborative partnership to facilitate excellent health and physical education learning outcomes and increase awareness of the values and purposes of health and physical education.
