This module is divided into two sections. The first focuses on corporate social responsibility, exploring what it is, and the power and place of sport as a driver for development and social change, inclusion and equality.
The main objective of the CSR section of the course is to train you in the development, implementation, evaluation and communication of CSR policies and initiatives in sports organisations.
The later sessions look at ethics in sports, considering ethical questions around sports organisation and federations and the business of sport in general.
You will examine morality and ethical issues pertaining to sport. During the first three sessions you will become involved with discussions on sportsmanship, fan behaviour, performance-enhancing drugs, gender equity in sport, deviant behaviour in athletics, and issues related to youth sports participation.
You will be required to examine your current rules, morals, and philosophies to your career aspirations and reflect on them in an ethical as well situational manner. You will be immersed in ethical situations through the use of videos and relevant current event articles.

ESEI uses the project-based learning and assessment methodology across all modules taught in our master programs. This means that you will work together in groups to develop projects that require creativity, team work, and problem-solving skills.
The main benefit of Project-Based Learning is that by the time you graduate, you will essentially have a portfolio of work to show which will be directly applicable to what you’ll be doing as a future employee or business owner.
It’s up to the teacher to decide on the format of the project – it can be a case study, a written report, a video, a role-playing activity, a podcast, or any other kind of media that gets your point across. The teachers create the project briefs and oversee the progress that teams are making week after week with regular check-in points.
