Football Career Development Mentorship Program

Share


The Online Master in Football Business & Management begins on October 19, 2020.  It is an industry-oriented program aimed at candidates that want to start or advance their career in the business side of football.  


As part of the course, students are invited to participate in a Football Career Development Mentorship Program. The mentorship program consists of a series of workshops and individual sessions with a mentor tailored to the specific aspirations of each candidate based on his/her career goals, age, geographical location, previous experience and academic background.

One of the program mentors is Markus Breglec, a top football executive with experience working as Director of Marketing & Media at Liverpool FC, as well as other brands such as Nike, Adidas, Sony and HTC.


Students are also provided direct access to various sporting recruitment firms which regularly advertise vacancies in the football industry at a worldwide level.

The program aims to assist students to transition out of the academic world and into the workforce in the football industry.  Our team of mentors provides students with information on the real-life workings of the football industry, its available jobs and general skills required to succeed in such a competitive sector. Students receive advice and support with career directon, netwoking, job applications and relationship building. 


Diego Valdes, the Sport Business Institute Barcelona's Director commented on the mentorship program:

"We are very excited about our Football Career Development Mentorship Program because it will provide students the guidance and support they require to optimize their opportunities in football. Many times candidates have a very strong business acumen but lack the knowledge on how to leverage their skills to transition or start working in the industry. With this program we allow all our students not only to gain the knowledge required, but also have the support from our team and network of professionals to set out a vialbe career plan for their future development in football." 


Emma Bogren, International Programs Coordinator also added:

"Our mentorship program demonstrates to our candidates that we are committed to their success.  We go beyond the teachings of a classroom and fully commit to providing them with the support and guidance to reach their full potential.  Our success depends on their success, and we are very well aware of this."
