OUA is Australia's leading provider of online higher education, providing access to over 2500 units and 160 courses from leading universities and other higher education providers around the country.
Four of the athletes are current and continuing OUA students – so a great reward for them and one other is a new applicant - studying already and utilising OUA to complete an elective unit online.
This is a wonderful opportunity for our athletes to continue with their dual careers whilst being Ambassadors for OUA in the lead into the upcoming Winter Olympics, Commonwealth Games and Summer Olympics in Tokyo.
