The second edition of the FIFA Technical Leadership Diploma, which seeks to become the “globally recognised qualification” for technical leaders working in the game, will get underway on 1 April 2024 in Germany.
Technical Director of the Nigeria Football Federation, Coach Augustine Eguavoen, will be one of the 25 global participants from member associations, the confederations and FIFA who will come together at the German Football Association’s national training centre for the first phase of the unique level 6 qualification.
“The launch of the second edition of the FIFA Technical Leadership Diploma offers further evidence of our commitment to the sustained investment in the education of technical leaders,” said Steven Martens, FIFA Director of Global Football Development. “We believe that the FIFA Technical Leadership Diploma will help each participant to optimise the management of football in their country – both on and off the pitch. The development of exceptional technical leaders will also assist us in delivering our long-term strategic aims of giving every talent a chance and growing the game at every level.”
