Collaboration between the AUAS and SLI
The Sports Leadership Programme is a joint initiative of the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences (AUAS) and the Sports Leadership Institute (SLI). The programme was first introduced at Nyenrode Business University in 2014 with the mission to inspire and empower the next generation leaders in sports. As the programme evolved, the SLP was relaunched in October 2020 in partnership with the AUAS.
