Can't qualify as sports therapist?
My boyfriend is doing a Sports Therapy degree. As he has a criminal record (ABH) he had to attend a meeting at the university before he started, and they were happy to accept him onto the course regardless of this.
However, only recentley, they have told him that he may not be able to finish his degree because the Society of Sports Therapists may not allow him to be a member due to his criminal record, so therefore he wouldn't be able to register as a sports therapist.
Whilst I think this is really unfair that they allowed him to get a few months into the course without telling them this, I can see the their point.
Can anyone shed any light on this?

it is not up to them to inform him of the ramifications of his abh conviction, except in relation to the course they are providing. Not their problem or responsibilty to inform him about the society of sports therapists rules and regulations regarding registering. it is completely his responsibility to find out about this. Even if the college has told him it is alright or not alright, he cannot trust what someone else says, he has a duty to find out for himself!
