A Level 2 Sports Trainer—identifiable by their orange shirts—are those who have completed the NRL Level 2 Sports Trainer Course. The Level 2 Sports Trainer is a trained professional with advanced skills in injury management, particularly in concussion and spinal injuries, and may hold senior on-field roles. They are targeted towards performance competitions and are the primary on-field decision-makers for player welfare in the absence of a medical professional.

The qualification builds upon the Level 1 Sports Trainer accreditation and is delivered using blended learning combining eLearning with face to face theoretical and practical tasks. Students are required to participate in all course elements, providing them with an opportunity to practice and refine their skills prior to assessment. The course structure involves simulated real-life scenarios which could appear in a Rugby League setting.

Pre-Requisites:

• HLTAID011 Provide First Aid completed in the past 2 years

• HLTAID009 Provide CPR completed in the past 12 months

• Current NRL Level 1 Sports Trainer qualification (or has been expired less than 12 months)

Upon successful completion of all Level 2 Sports Trainer course requirements, students will receive:
