BACKGROUND

It is quiet well known that education brings overall development endeavors in the socio- economic, political and psycho-cultural spheres of a society/country by remarkably using or utilizing the available labor resources in the process of supplying or producing professionally and academically qualified, competent, well informed, responsible socially effective citizens that a country critically looks for its various development sectors. Viewed in this way, the overriding purpose of an educational system is to prepare citizens of a country, with desirable and relevant knowledge, skills, attitudes, social and ethical values, and making the citizens adaptable to their environment. Cognizant of this fact, in Ethiopia during the past three and half decades, physical education and sport has increasingly become an academic discipline. Now a day Universities produce a qualified physical education and sport Science professionals.

Today the attention given for the role of physical exercises and sports which has now become part of activities in schools, colleges and universities, organizational settings, sport and health clubs has been increasing than ever before. The demand of the society in the area of physical activities for maintaining and developing total health and well-being will force professional in the area to revise the past approaches. Sport Science program under qualified leadership aids in the enrichment of an individual’s life. It aims at building a sound body, a sharp mind and a whole-some personality. It is essential for the cultivation of vitality, obedience, discipline, and positive attitude towards life and the world.

Moreover the countries growing need of professionals towards the fundamental coaching skills is at the peak level. Regarding this the Federal Sport Commission and Regional Sport Commissions effort to fill the gap with different levels of training has been limited and insignificant in terms of producing large and efficient number of coaches. Currently, the

Ethiopian government has incorporated sport with the country’s five years transformation plan. It is also believed that huge number of qualified and skilled manpower can be obtained from the Ethiopian Higher Institutions. Thus, with the cooperation of the Sport Commission, Ministry of Education, selected universities and respective National Federations this curriculum has been designed. To this end, the main purpose of this document is to compile the curriculum content to be offered for the Bachelor of Science in order to meet the required demand mainly at secondary level of education, regional and wereda sport affairs, sport federations, Sport clubs and fitness advisor instructors. In consequence, respective federations are expected to manage the licensing of graduates.

2. RATIONALE OF THE PROGRAM

It is important to indicate and discus on the variables that should be considered carefully

regarding the need for reviewing the previous curriculum based on the national need assessment. The need assessment indicates us the following points:

 The existing sport science curriculum lacks skills of practical coaching with adequate practice time.

 The existing sport science curriculum needs a change that addresses the current problems in terms of the content, mode of delivery, and assessment.

 Sport science professionals with adequate coaching skills are limited and

employed immediately after graduation and a high demand by the employers exist  Lack of availability of enough sport facilities, equipment, reference materials and

ICT.

 Acute shortage of skilled and qualified manpower for coaching in youth centers.  The coaching courses have not consider the interest of stakeholders( sport

federations ,sport clubs, youth projects, etc)  Graduates lack such as:

 Practical skills  Coaching exposure  Practice time

 Subject matter knowledge  Basic communication skills

 Organization and management of tournaments  Assessment skills

To alleviate the identified problems, experts have developed the following solutions:  Number of credit hours of major area compulsory and elective coaching courses

increased to 85 cr. hrs.

 Congested elective coaching and attachment courses are split in to independent courses with increased credit hour to improve the depth of the knowledge in the area of coaching.

 The total number of credit hour for degree program increased.  9 new elective coaching and 9 coaching practice courses are added.

(4)
