The qualification content is currently being updated for the qualifications with the status “Registered-data under construction” or showing “DETAILS UNDER CONSTRUCTION” to ensure compliance with SAQA’S Policy and Criteria for the registration of qualifications and part-qualifications on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF) (As amended, 2022). These qualifications are re-registered until 30 June 2027 and can legitimately be offered by the institutions to which they are registered.

 

In all of the tables in this document, both the pre-2009 NQF Level and the NQF Level is shown. In the text (purpose statements, qualification rules, etc), any references to NQF Levels are to the pre-2009 levels unless specifically stated otherwise.  

PURPOSE AND RATIONALE OF THE QUALIFICATION 
Purpose:
The purpose of this qualification in Biokinetics is to provide learners with a sound scientific knowledge base in the field of Human Physiology, Anatomy, Kinesiology and Human Movement Science as well as practical skills and appropriate attitudes and values to enhance health, optimise wellbeing and performance, and prevent the progression of certain ailments of individuals and communities.

The main focus of this qualification is to provide professional training in respect of scientifically based prescriptive exercise in the following four domains of practice:
  • Knowledge, understanding, skills and attitudes related to the structure and function of the human body systems.
  • Knowledge, understanding, skills and attitudes related to the psycho-socio aspects of health, function and human performance.
  • Knowledge, understanding, skills and attitudes related to biomechanics.
  • Knowledge, understanding, skills and attitudes related to exercise physiology and clinical exercise physiology for rehabilitation.
  • Planing and implementing effective and efficient therapeutic and recreation programmes.
  • Specialised knowledge, understanding, skills and attitudes related to human motor behaviour.
  • Applying relevant and appropriate knowledge, understanding, skills and attitudes to the prevention and rehabilitation of musculo-skeletal injuries.
  • Applying specialised knowledge, understanding, skills and attitudes related to health promotion, health education and health related aspects of exercise and physical activity.
  • Applying relevant knowledge, understanding, skills and attitudes in conducting scientifically sound/based measurement and evaluation in biokinetics contexts.
  • Managing a private or public biokinetics practice or health care facility effectively and efficiently.

    Rationale:
    Since 1984, Biokinetics as an area of specialisation within the Human Movement Science has been registered by the Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA). It became imperative that due to the level and demand of professional training and the requirements set by the professional bodies in South Africa, that a professional four-year Degree be available for prospective biokinetists. This four-year professional Degree in Biokinetics was designed for the professional sector in which Biokineticists function (part of the paramedical discipline and Board of Physiotherapy and Podiatry) with a view to producing trained professionals who will be able to provide communities and individuals with guidance and practical skills in the different modes of exercise and/or physical activity to improve health, performance, motor ability and general well-being.

    The growing need in our country for optimisation of physical performances in the workplace, on the sports field, for preventive medicine for sports injuries, hypokinetic diseases, other related ailments and the appropriate and effective rehabilitation of such ailments and injuries, resulted in the development of this qualification whereby all these factors were taken into consideration in the planning of the qualification. The scientific knowledge needed at this professional level requires that learners be theoretically grounded and trained with the necessary skills. This qualification also complies with national and international best practice standards. The offering of the new Degree will be handled with careful cognisance of the supply and demand of the profession as to ensure sustainability of quality and employment opportunities for the learner.

    It should be noted that upon successful completion of the qualification the learner will be able to register with the HPCSA, Board of Physiotherapy, Podiatry and Biokinetics.
