#33 : Football Agent Education & Professional Development - UEFA's Player Agent Programme for Agents Around the World - Disappointing FIFA Agent CPD - Important US Court Case Against FIFA & USSF
Description
This week on 'The Agents Angle' there is a look at the subject of football agent education and professional development - from the phase of preparing for the FIFA Football Agents exam through to fine-tuning the agent skill set for a very competitive industry.
The show welcomes UEFA Academy Programme Manager Stephane Ehrhart, who takes us through the 'UEFA Player Agents Programme', which covers topics from player identification and statistical analysis through to negotiation and other agent industry skills.
And in the last week before the application deadline for the 3rd FIFA Football Agents exam, there is a look at the courses that claim to help candidates pass the exam, as they commence their football agent journey.
Also, news on regulation changes in England and the UK, with a new football regulator confirmed and the English Premier League (EPL) bringing in new cost controls; as well as a look at why 'bugs' seemingly persist in the FIFA Agents Platform and FIFA agent CPD, failing to live up to expectations. Plus, the 'Relevant' anti-competition case in the USA against the USSF and FIFA, that could impact cases against FFAR and the capping of agent fees.
