Budding sports industry professionals will now receive improved training and sports management insights thanks to a £230,000 investment in learning tools by UCFB.
Based at both Burnley Football Club and Wembley Stadium, the move has enabled UCFB to invest in items such as 235 Samsung tablets for both students and staff members, 45 library desktop computers and two Macbooks for its media course.
“The students’ tablets come pre-loaded with the UCFB portal, giving them instant access to educational resources whenever they want. Staff can also send downloadable learning materials prior to a lecture so students can prepare beforehand and follow the information given during class more readily.”
With more than 500 students, UCFB originally worked with Academy Leasing when the Burnley campus first opened in 2011.
