Our students say…
qualification
If you love sport, we know you don’t want to be stuck in a classroom all day long. That’s why we balance theory with engaging practical lessons. Better still you will complete 12 sports-themed units during your two years on course, giving you a deep knowledge of the global sports industry.


We are a Pearson approved centre and LLS is often used as an example of best practice.
