Gamified and Online Activities for Learning to Support Dual Career of Athletes (GOAL)

Dual careers defined as enabling education or work, promote the attainment of a new career after the sporting career, and protect and safeguard the position of athletes. The success of dual career arrangements is largely dependent on individual, personalised pathways enabled through the use of rich-mediated technologies that will facilitate athlete’s effort to adapt to the changing employment needs. GOAL (Gamified and Online Activities for Learning to support dual career of athletes, http://goal.csd.auth.gr/) will effectively start dual careers for athletes embracing their awareness to balance sport training and education and, at a later stage, sport training and employment.
