Education Is Essential But Is Your Organization Generating The Positive Publicity Your Results Deserve?

Everywhere in life competition is increasing, and nowhere more so than within education. As an educational establishment, every year it becomes more difficult to attract the best students, information as always is key.

Footballers often have a reputation for not being particularly intellectual, but as this infographic from GK and Partners demonstrates many footballers are not only skilled on the pitch, but equally talented intellectually.

The team of football scholars includes Arsene Wenger, who is fluent in three separate languages as well as being the proud recipient of a Masters degree in economics.

Graham Le Saux has put his mind to good use and obtained an Environmental Studies degree from Kingston University.

Not all players study for their qualifications after retirement, Steve Coppell of Manchester United knuckled down while enjoying a glittering career at United to get his degree in Economics from the University of Liverpool.

You might think that modern day footballers, earning thousands of pounds per week would have little motivation to go home from training and then hit the books, but Juan Mata has studied for two degrees, one in Sports Science and the other in Marketing.

Iain Dowie, the former Northern Ireland player, has obtained a degree in Engineering from Southampton University.

As can be seen in the infographic it would be very easy to form an exciting football team with highly qualified players, which is contrary to the public perceptions of football players. Managing and promoting your successes has never been more important.
