guidelines and investigative procedures and consequences for inappropriate behaviour. The Student
Code of Conduct is designed to uphold the dignity of all staff, students, and persons associated with the
organisation. It sets out acceptable student behaviour and appropriate disciplinary measures. Its
underlying purpose is to outline for students and staff their rights to work and study in a positive, secure,

 Being professional in all dealings with staff and other students

 Racial, religious, or sexual slurs towards staff or other students
 Threatening behaviour towards staff or other students
 Abuse
 Misuse of equipment
 Actions that lead to putting yourself, staff, or other students at risk
Any breach of the code of conduct will be investigated, and the student concerned will be asked to give a
written response to these allegations. If it is found that a student has breached the code of conduct,
then depending on the severity of the breach, that student may be given a warning or may even be
terminated from the course without notice and receive no refund of fees. The CEO of the Australian
Institute of Personal Trainers will make the final decision on any actions resulting in termination.

Dear Trainer,

Re: Client Name: Fred Stark

Client Address: 6 Darknight Ave. Holt SA

Client DOB: 10.01.1990

Thank you for referring your client Fred STARK. I have given him clearance to participate in fitness
activities as his knee pain is due to a muscular imbalance. Based on Fred Stark’s information and
exercise program goals that you have supplied, my recommendations are:

Strengthening the following muscles:

 Gluteus medius and minimus – If these are weak then quadratus lumborum is tight too.
 Vastus medialis Lateral patella tracking during knee flexion & extension.
 Stretch and release the following muscles:
 Tensor fascia lata – Stabilizes the outside of knee
 Vastus lateralis Causes knee pain when tight.
 Iliopsoas if this is tight this leads to sway back or flat back posture.
 Rectus femoris If this is tight, leads to a sway back (anterior rotation of pelvis), forces knee into
hyperextension

If I can assist with anything else, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Happy training!

Yours sincerely,

Robert Tune
