| Description: | Vocational education and extra-curricular activities such as sport are important in life. The transformation of vocational education has been attracting more students into this stream. Sport activities in vocational and technical colleges are co-curricular activities and require coaches to be skilled in sound risk management to ensure that they are safe and free of risk for participants. Professional sport is authorised by the public to make judgements in preparing and ensuring safe sport environments due to the nature of their specialised knowledge and training. The development of students’ knowledge of risk management practices will help students to identify potential risk factors in sport, and to prevent, control and minimise the risk of accident and injury. This research aims to develop college students’ knowledge of the practice of risk management in sport (DCSK-PRMS). This study is a survey, and involved a total of 120 respondents who were students of the College of Teacher Education (CTE) trained as sport coaches in vocational and technical colleges. The instrument used was a questionnaire and data were analysed using the Rasch Measurement Model to measure the implementation of four analyses for the purpose of examining the functionality of the items. The findings of the pilot study showed the reliability of the individual, while the Cronbach’s Alpha reliability was 0.92 (very good) and the reliability was 0.72, indicating a good level. The findings show that the DCSK-PRMS is at a high level and is the dominant element in the supervision and training of sport activities. |
