What our past students say

I had considered doing the Diploma in Sports Law for a few years and found the course content was very interesting and the speakers very engaging, so it never felt like a chore. The in-person events were a great opportunity to get to know many of my fellow classmates and make some important new connections. I was delighted I took the diploma and am looking forward to using that new knowledge in practice.
