Since the UEFA Academy’s inception a year and a half ago, the learning and development arm of UEFA has been enjoying success with its programs, developed specifically to address the needs of those in the football and sporting world. While the programs are conducted face-to-face in various cities globally, the Academy has established its online presence with a website and an official LinkedIn account, which serves as a means to engage and communicate with their various stakeholders. The ongoing crisis of the Covid-19 pandemic has evidently led to a more pressing need for a robust online presence.
