UEFA Career Transition Programme (UEFA CTP)

Programme overview

The programme features talent tests, self-assessments, interviews, case studies and role play to help you analyse your strengths and personality. UEFA experts will present a variety of professional openings and share their insights and knowledge in a series of interactive presentations.

As a highlight of the course, former professional players will share inspiring stories about how they successfully managed their own career transition. At the end of the programme, you will carry out an engaging case study featuring real-life situations so that you can narrow the field. UEFA experts will also help you identify the next step and draw up a career action plan. We encourage applications from male and female footballers and futsal players. There is a limited number of participants per session to ensure the programme remains interactive.

Bootcamp or online edition

The online CTP is aimed at players who are currently thinking about their second career. They will have access to exclusive content, experts and mentors at a limited cost and without any constraints, through virtual role play exercises and discussions with their peers all over the world.

The bootcamp on the other hand has been designed as a unique experience for 20 top players who are already at the end of their playing career. You will get to spend five exciting days at the home of European football in Switzerland. Outdoor teambuilding activities, face-to-face sessions with mentors, exercises and extensive networking opportunities make this the ultimate programme for you to shape your future in football. In exchanges and reflection during a busy week of lessons and development, you will receive top-class guidance and insights from our experts and mentors. You will also live unforgettable moments of sport, friendship and personal growth through interaction with other participants.
