Assessment Grids by BC Post-Secondary Institution (PSI)
Note: academic assessment grids are not available for applicants educated outside of British Columbia (BC). Please refer to the Core Academic Subject Descriptions if you completed your education or coursework outside of BC and use that information to complete your self-assessment.
The academic assessment grids provided below have been prepared to assist students and potential applicants complete the professional membership application process.
The grids, which list courses allocated to specific subject requirements, are based on current course syllabi and consultation with PSI kinesiology department representatives (as of the release date of the documents).
The grids are to be used to guide BC educated kinesiology students and new applications in:
- Planning their undergraduate course selections
- Completing the mandatory academic self-assessment form
Courses completed as part of a 2-year Associate Degree (Diploma) program will only be considered as part of the required 4-year Undergraduate degree program in Clinical Kinesiology) - applicants with a 2-year program must complete the other 2 years prior to application.
Course Outlines/Syllabi
If your PSI has added, renamed, renumbered, or discontinued courses that are listed on these grid sheets, please provide the new or altered course outline or syllabus for the BCAK to review.
Note, you are not required to provide course syllabi for most courses listed on these BC academic assessment grid sheets (the BCAK already has these on record). You are required to provide course syllabi that are noted on the grid sheets as being required and/or if you are submitting courses on your self-assessment that are not listed on our assessment grid(s).
If you are applying with transfer credit courses, you must provide the course outlines from the originating post-secondary institution (if not found on one of the lists below) and the BCAK will determine if the course or course(s) meet(s) the learning outcome requirements for a given course subject(s). Courses accepted by PSIs as transfer credits are not necessarily accepted by BCAK for transfer – BCAK assesses each course syllabi for the required content.
Course outlines and related details are required from BC PSIs under the following situations:
- Courses are not listed on the grids, or courses which incorporate practicum placements, co-operative education or internships
- Seminar topic courses and directed studies courses content information are required as per the notes provided within the grid sheets below
Applicants who have completed clinical kinesiology coursework outside of BC (in whole (the degree program) or in part (some but not all courses)) must submit course outlines, syllabi and relevant documents for a comprehensive review. Submission of syllabi is not required for English, business, or other courses unrelated to the clinical kinesiology curriculum.
