UHI Perth’s Sport, Health and Outdoor Education department is seeking organisations across the sport, fitness, therapy and outdoor sectors to support student placements during the following periods:
- Block 1: Aug–Dec 2025
- Block 2: Jan–Apr 2026
(Partial placements within these blocks are welcome.)
We are looking for opportunities in:
- Sports Coaching: assisting with session planning, delivery, and reflection
- Fitness Instruction: gym-based experience, client support, and programme delivery
- Sports Therapy: supporting injury prevention, rehab, or recovery activities
- Outdoor Adventure: assisting with group activities, equipment setup, safety, and participant support in outdoor environments
Students are studying at HNC, and HND levels and require a minimum of 20 hours per placement. They are supported by UHI Perth throughout, and progressing students will take on increased responsibilities. Longer-term volunteering or potential paid roles are encouraged where appropriate.
If you’re able to support a student placement or would like more information, we’d be happy to hear from you
