“HKIN 455 was an amazing experience for me. I was at a point in my university career where I felt like I was burning out, and doing an internship was the exact change of pace I needed. Also, because it is a 15 credit course, I stayed right on schedule with my degree. After this course, I feel more capable and confident in my abilities as a young person in the workforce than ever before. I had a blast doing my internship, and I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything!”

“This experience has meant so much to me. I feel privileged to have been able to spend the semester with my supervisor, an internationally known strength and conditioning coach. I will take what I learned with me into the field of human kinetics and I now have the confidence to apply my knowledge and know that it is ok to make mistakes - that is how we learn. Without this internship I think I would feel lost, in a sea of textbooks and theory.”

Slide 22: 

“How I see it, Internship is getting to play in the game (whatever sport it may be). You can sit on the bench and watch the game, study the game, go over game plays and theory, but until you step into the game you have no idea what it is like to play; it is only by playing the game that you can build the confidence and skills that are required to succeed.”

“The experience that HKIN 455 provided me with has allowed me to develop a number of administrative skills, make connections within the industry, and step outside of my comfort zone to become a more confident group leader and public speaker. This experience has aided me in securing a well rounded undergraduate degree, increasing my interest and knowledge in areas I had not yet explored. HKIN 455 has been invaluable to me in determining my future career path.”

“This internship opportunity has given me the chance to get over 400 hours of hands on experience that most of my fellow HKIN classmates do not have. It is an advantage that I am grateful for and will greatly improve my chances of success in switching from academics to a career I can be proud of. I can confidently say, that HKIN 455 is the highlight of my post secondary studies.”
