Online learning

Written and developed in collaboration with subject matter experts, the content on The Academy seeks to upskill and inform a wide range of stakeholders across both football and wider society, including clubs, officials, players and fans, providing them with the tools to not only recognise different forms of discrimination and barriers to inclusion, but to also effectively respond and report any incidents they may witness or be subject to. 

‘By completing one of the online courses, I have learnt that equality and diversity in football is paramount in the success of inclusivity.’ 

Since its initial launch, The Academy has allowed us to expand our reach and presence within the educational space, with over 5,000 people now signed up to the platform, accessing our ever-growing catalogue of courses.
