Loughborough College

Loughborough College is one of few colleges in the country to offer TASS Accreditation for FE learners. The college achieved the accreditation in May 2018 after years of work supporting, guiding and mentoring learners and elite athletes manage education and elite sport performance. The national recognition was reward for this work and the college now has two Dual Career Coordinators who can support up to 60 athletes in managing their lifestyle, education programme, training and competition, as well as regular workshops.

The college support includes advice on nutrition, hydration, finance, lifestyle management, scholarships as well as regular support meetings. The DCC’s will help you manage your time and training workloads, prepare for assessment deadlines while also working with coaches, fitness and have links with other elite sport support teams. Since 2018 the college TASS programme has supported World record holders, European champions, and international athletes from team sports as well as helping the progress of gymnasts, runners, pole vaulters, netball players, footballers and golfers.
