Bren&Nick Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 Hi Dwain Good decision to make - welcome to the forum. Lots of info available but have no idea what they call Bio kinetics there - perhaps it reamins the same.Brenda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wantbetter Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 Hi DwainAccording to this website and a few other Australian ones, it's still called biokinetics:http://www.akakinesiology.org.au/Display.aspx?tabid=41Also, welcome to the forum. I personally think making the decision and sticking to it is the hardest part, not the application itself.Goodluck with everything.Wantbetter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelG Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 Hi dwain and welcome to the forum.If you are looking to use your skills as a biokinetisist to get into Aus I think maybe you should look at:anatomist-or-physiologistI may be wrong, but Biokinetics does not feature on the immi website (so not on the skills list), and I do believe the local biokinetics qualifications cover a lot of sports physiology.Hope that helps - and Good luck, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 Welcome to the stampede, Dwain.On this website, you'll find one or three other South Africans with the same thing in mind.They don't wear T-shirts advertising the fact, nor do they tell anyone what they're doing in Life, but they're quietly on their way . . . . . as you'll find.Good luck.

phoenix Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Hi DwainIn Aus a Biokineticist is called an Exercise Physiologist. Registration as an AEP (Accredited Exercise Pysiologist) is through the Australian Association of Exercise and Sport Science (AAESS). Their website is www.aaess.com.au and of you contact them you'll propably speak to Bec. Make sure you fill in the forms they send you as completely as possible, even if you think something is irrelevant. My registration is still pending, the assesment person is on holiday for a week or two.You made the right choice.Good luck!Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
