TAFISA CLC Program

TAFISA Certified Leadership Courses (CLC) in Sport for All are developed to train and qualify leaders and managers by developing comprehensive leadership skills and competencies within the Sport for All sector. The program started in 2007, with IOC support in 2010-2020, and now in 2024, it is a part of the SUCCEED project.

The CLC program addresses change and capacity at the individual participant level, community level through individual participants’ engagement, organizational level and systemic level by encouraging the creation of partnerships and alliances between participant organisations – leading towards collective action within an enhanced Sport for All ecosystem.
