The FIFA/CIES International Programme in Sports Management covers all sports and provides training in essential fields of sports management, in particular communication, law, marketing & sponsorship, management, finance, and event management. The Programme consists of 150-200 hours of courses and is taught in the local language of the partner universities (French, English, Spanish, Polish, Arabic, Portuguese).
 

This programme aims to familiarise students with the fundamental principles and methods of modern management, while adapting to  economic, cultural and social requirements of each country. It provides students with theoretical and practical management tools to allow them to run their federation, association or club efficiently, considering the specificities and realities of their local environment.
 

Finally, the Programme allows students to get some international exposure through various initiatives such as the CIES conferences delivered by foreign experts, the annual study visit for the LATAM universities, webinars with fellow graduates worldwide, FIFA World Cup gatherings, etc.
