Sport and recreation is a large industry in New Zealand. Many people are employed across the sector, running sporting codes, managing venues, working with tourism ventures, running events, working with sporting franchises and in many other ways. If you are interested in working in the sport and recreation sector having a tertiary qualification will help you learn the skills specific to the industry, and can help you get that important first job which starts your career. In Otago there are two main providers of tertiary education in sport and recreation:
