RISE - Sports

RISE- Regina Mundi Instruction in Health/Wellness and Sport Excellence

The RISE program is the Ministry recognized High Skills Major Specialist in Sport Management. It offers students the opportunity to explore topics and issues related to health, fitness, leadership, sport and recreation while still in high school. Through in-class learning, the student will develop many skills that will serve as a building block to various careers in the Sport Management Industry.

If your son or daughter chooses to participate in this program, they will enroll in specified courses within their regular timetable. The certifications will be paid for as a part for the LDCSB Student Success Initiative and there will not be any additional cost for your family.

The SHSM–Sports enables students to build a foundation of sector-focused knowledge and skills before graduating and entering apprenticeship training, college, university, or an entry-level position in the workplace. Where local circumstances allow, boards may elect to offer one or more variants of the SHSM in a given sector, each with a particular area of focus. This SHSM may be designed to have a particular focus – for example, on competitive and recreational sports, sports management, or sports media and broadcasting. This focus is achieved through the selection of the four major credits in the bundle.
