The Higher Education Endorsement Scheme is being managed by SkillsActive in conjunction with the Institute for the Management of Sport and Physical Activity and Sports Coach UK. The scheme is the first time the wider sports sector has come together to offer industry endorsement to enhance the employability agenda in HE. Following a successful pilot scheme, Active Endorsement has now been launched in Coaching, Sports Development, Leisure Management and Fitness.
