CAIC keeps conducting systematic development of sports management in Russia. The CAIC President Vladimir Maksimov and Rector of the Mordovia State University Dmitry Glushko signed an agreement on cooperation.
The agreement opens a new stage in training of highly qualified sports managers. The partnership will be implemented in the Master's Program "Sports Management" of the Economic Institute of the Ogarev Mordovia State University. The CAIC will become a key partner of the program ensuring that students are immersed in the practice of organizing major international events.
“This is a strategically important step for us in training a talent pool,” said Vladimir Maksimov, CAIC President. “I am confident that the combination of the academic base of one of the leading universities and our practical experience in conducting the Children of Asia Games will enable us to educate a new generation of sports managers. We are ready to share our unique competencies and provide the best students with a platform to implement their projects.”
Dmitry Glushko, Rector of the Ogarev Mordovia State University, emphasized: “The Master’s program ‘Sports Management’ is based on immersion in the organization of real sports events. The signing of the agreement will allow us to invite the heads of international sports organizations, such as the Children of Asia International Committee – the only international sports organization registered in Russia, as well as the heads of sports events to our university to train future sports managers.”
As part of the cooperation, experts and heads of the Children of Asia International Committee will be conducting master classes and lectures. Students will be able to participate in internships and work with real cases within preparation for mega sports events.
