Friday 3 May 2013, sees the launch of the World Academy of Sport’s (WAoS) brand new website. After months of hard work, we are pleased to announce that it has now gone live. Updating the old site, we feel, was highly necessary. Now it is much more efficient and will benefit everyone associated with WAoS. “We believe the site is a lot more user friendly,” said Chris Solly, Director of the World Academy of Sport (WAoS). “Not only does it look smarter and more professional, but it also features a host of new features that make it simpler for those interested in the WAoS to be involved in our programmes.”

Programme Finder

This new feature highlights the programmes we offer which are best suited to you. We have a wide range of programmes specific to the needs of the sports industry. There are programmes for everyone, from athletes to take them from high school, university, post-graduate study and beyond to managers looking to develop specific skills that will give them the edge. Our athlete, management and technical education programmes have their own headings, giving you another way to find what you need. It has never been easier to find the right programme with the WAoS and register to take the next step no matter what your sporting goals are.

Our Partners

The WAoS has many partners across a broad spectrum of sport and education throughout the world. Our partners section consolidates all that information into a new, simple format. Our International Sport Federation partners also have updated and improved sites which provide sport specific programmes across the each programme portfolio. If you are interested in being a partner of the WAoS then get in contact with us to discuss.

Athlete Pathways

A key focus of the WAoS is in establishing education pathways for competitive athletes that take into account the intense travel, training and competition commitments they have in their sport. The new site provides our online FIS Athlete Certificate and information on our IB pilot project to make it easy for athletes to find an education programme that’s right for them. In the coming months we’ll update this area as further programmes are announced.

Social Media - @WAoSport

The new site has a bigger focus on our social media presence, with easily accessible links to our Twitter and LinkedIn pages. We would love to hear from you and also let you follow everything going on at the WAoS.
