As a result of Life After Sport project, this guidebook offers a set of actions for sports and educational stakeholder organizations seeking to successfully implement or support the 3-Stage Dual Career Programme. The guidebook represents a standard of elements and actions needed for the efficient rollout of 3-stage dual career program, based on a combination of field research results and educational/sports theories of success.

This guidebook serves not only as a set of internal guidelines for an organization, but also as an external statement of commitments with regard to the dual career subject.
This guidebook can:
-Define the organization’s engagement with the subject;
-Set out recommended actions for the organization to follow to successfully implement the 3-stage dual career program.
-Let young athletes and social supporters know what to expect from an organization using this Guidebook so they can potentially work together in balancing and coordinating the dual career format, creating a high level of transparency and mutual understanding for a healthy working relationship.

This project is co-financed by European Commission under Erasmus+ Sport Collaborative Partnership with 603311-EPP-1-2018-1-BG-SPO-SCP project ref. number.
