Three programmes, one goal: your career in sport

Sport is broader than one role. Pick the programme that fits where you want to go, and we'll help you take the first step.

About the programmes

What is Golpath Institute?

Each Golpath Institute programme is a short, practical sports education course held in Lisbon, built around real experience rather than classroom theory. Whichever path you choose, you'll spend a few intensive days working directly with industry professionals, visiting real clubs and organisations, and building the skills the sports industry actually uses. Every programme ends with a certificate, but more importantly, with the understanding and network to take your next step.

Where: Lisbon, Portugal
How long: 4 days to 1 week
2027 intakes: March, June or July

Why Berlin Sports

All three Golpath Institute programmes sit under Berlin Sports, an international sports agency with over a decade of hands-on experience, having worked with more than 1,100 football clubs across 100+ countries. That real-world network is what you get access to, whichever programme you choose. We know firsthand how hard it is to get a first foot in the door of this industry, and Golpath Institute exists to give people that access directly.
