Incompatible EXSC661 Sports Law and the Regulatory Environment
Teaching Organisation Equivalent of 24 hours in mixed mode, including online and on-campus delivery.

This unit provides an understanding of the way that the law is made and applied in Australia. It seeks to give students greater confidence with respect to understanding legal concepts and language and to introduce students to a legal framework which surrounds their daily activities and consequently an enhanced ability to manage legal issues. In particular the unit takes basic legal concepts and applies them specifically to issues that arise in the human services sector. It deals in depth not only with issues that arise in the workplace but also with issues that arise in dealing with the diverse stakeholders of human service organisations as well as the changing employment environment.
