Sports Administrators Programme<br />
685 courses demonstrate programme’s success<br />
The Sports Administrators Programme was introduced in 1984 with the objective of<br />
improving the professional level of sports administrators. Originally known as the “Itinerant<br />
School of Administration”, the courses have evolved over the past 20 years to their current<br />
structure, whereby more than 100 NOCs have certified National Course Directors<br />
(NCDs) who are actively training sports administrators, from grassroots level in provincial<br />
areas of their country to new administrators operating at national level.<br />
In support of the IOC’s policy to encourage NOCs to increase the number of women in<br />
administrative and management positions, Olympic Solidarity included in the programme<br />
guidelines a provision for NOCs to promote the training of top female sport<br />
leaders through the participation of women in the courses and the certification of<br />
female NCDs. Since the start of the quadrennial, NOCs have provided increasing opportunities<br />
for women through their inclusion in the sports administrators’ courses. However,<br />
Olympic Solidarity hopes that more women will be certified as NCDs in the coming<br />
quadrennial.<br />
