Following the success of the previous two editions, FIFA has today launched the third edition of its Executive Programme in Sports Arbitration. Information about applications, which are open from 12 April until 16 June 2023, can be found at legal.fifa.com. FIFA has a long standing and extensive practice before the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), being the international federation with the most experience of dealing with such procedures. FIFA has been involved in thousands of cases before CAS covering the whole spectrum of legal disputes (disciplinary, anti-doping, contractual, etc.) The FIFA Executive Programme in Sports Arbitration offers a practical, personalised learning method, backed up by the theory and research that focuses primarily on proceedings and practical aspects before CAS as well as exploring arbitration in other sports bodies. The programme will run from September to December 2023 with modules in Madrid, Buenos Aires and the closing module at the FIFA HQ in Zurich. You can find further details about the 2023 edition of the FIFA Executive Programme in Sports Arbitration on legal.fifa.com or in the official brochure.
