Announcement
BWF in partnership with the World Academy of Sport (WAoS) have opened a new cycle of scholarships for WAoS’ and the University of London’s Postgraduate Certificate in International Sports Management.
The Postgraduate Certificate (PGCert) in International Sports Management has two target groups:
- Dual career athletes who have chosen a joint educational and elite sporting life; and
- Other people employed within the badminton community (e.g., staff from BWF Member Associations).
Postgraduate Certificate (PGCert) in International Sports Management
The course is 100 percent online and can be completed over a period of up to five years, recognising that athletes and industry professionals require varying levels of learning at different stages in their careers as many have limited time available.
To be considered for a scholarship the following criteria must be met by the applicants:
- An existing undergraduate degree (for example a bachelor degree) or a minimum of 5-8 years of relevant work experience and professional references; and
- An English language level of IELTS: at least 6.5 overall, with 6.0 in the written test or other equivalent proficiency certification; plus
- Be in good standing with their Member Association.
Deadline for the applications is 15 June 2024
