"Working alongside EOSE has been a very fruitful opportunity to engage with the most updated labour-related sector needs and state of the art regarding the current situation of the sports employment market. During several years UPM have partnered with EOSE, we have been able to understand the bigger picture of the demands and expectations of employers, education providers and workers during the first decades of the current century. Collaborating with EOSE has brought us to the larger European context, and hopefully we have given them valuable and interesting information about the Spanish situation."

"A one-year-long experience as an EOSE member has brought several positive moments. First, it was the annual Members’ Seminar and General Assembly full of new contacts, observing and sharing current occupational trends in European sports. We also appreciated an inspirational insight into the topic of micro-credentials at the Capacity Building Workshop. We are looking forward to new topics and cooperation that we could utilise in research and teaching on the potential of sports for tackling social problems, adapting it for people with specific needs and mainstreaming the good practice."
