Sport Lisboa e Benfica - Football Development Programme
Date du début: 1 sept. 2014, Date de fin: 31 août 2015 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

Wigan and Leigh College will give thirty sports students (male and female) aged 16-19 the opportunity to undertake a two week football coaching work experience placement with Sport Lisboa e Benfica , a Football Academy in Lisbon. Participants will be undertaking a level 3 vocational qualification in sport and will be a member of the College's Football Development Programme. This project will give the participants the opportunity to engage with an organisation operating within their chosen field of study. The main aim of the project is to provide participants with the opportunity to experience a different culture and gain relevant knowledge and skills for their chosen career. The objectives of the project are: • To provide students with an enhanced learning experience allowing them to gain knowledge and skills to help them achieve their qualification and improve their employability. • To enhance their existing vocational programme by providing an innovative opportunity for participants to experience a different culture and way of learning and working. • To enable participants to experience an exciting and different pedagogical approach to learning and work experience, providing them with the relevant skills and knowledge sought by employers. The industry the participants are looking to enter is highly competitive and the College is looking to give them every possible opportunity to gain an advantage to achieve and succeed. By gaining work experience in Portugal participants will benefit from learning and implementing different philosophies and ways of coaching which will in turn improve their employability and give them a competitive advantage when applying for jobs within the UK and abroad. Participants will also develop their interpersonal skills through cultural and language training prior to their visit and through interaction with the Portuguese community during their placement, adding additional value to the project. As a partnership Wigan and Leigh College and Sport Lisboa e Benfica will work together to ensure an appropriate placement is provided with the necessary support mechanisms in place. Roles and responsibilities will be allocated accordingly and through effective communication and co-operation will ensure participants benefit greatly from this opportunity. It is expected that participants will return from their placement having gained valuable knowledge and skills to enable them to achieve their qualification and a wealth of experience to help them progress into their chosen career. It is envisaged that the partnership will develop and benefit both organisations in many ways from the engagement of new learners to improving stakeholder relationships.
