CESNI

Centre for National and International Sports Studies

CESNI: Official Supplier of Skills

Created in 1992, following the Olympic Games in Albertville, and after remarking that participation in sports competitions is not often compatible with the constraints of higher studies, the CESNI makes it possible for able-bodied and handicapped sports people to continue their studies during their sports career and to prepare their career change.

A unique concept in France, the CESNI proposes courses leading to diplomas or qualifications in management, business and marketing from post high school level to second-year Master’s degree level.

The CESNI welcomes several different categories of sports people:

- The elite (sports people on the official list of the Ministry for Women’s Rights, Towns, Youth and Sports),

- National and regional up and coming sports people,

- Professionals or future professionals in the sports field (employees in sports firms, ski instructors and high mountain guides etc).
