The Masterclass has helped me significantly advance my knowledge of the football industry. I had a unique chance to directly ask many questions to Erkut and learn from his real-life experiences.
I was able to interact with the network Erkut provided us through the guest lecturers, which resulted in me adding to my professional network to create new professional opportunities for myself in the football industry.
Right now, I am currently at Washington Spirit (N.W.S.L) – the program directly helped me as I was able to draw on my contribution to real-life cases (as part of the course) to showcase my value and industry knowledge. Furthermore, the network that I’ve built with the help of Erkut has helped me capture opportunities as part of my job, so I can’t recommend this course enough if you wish to work in the football industry.
