We believe in you.

Longford International College (LIC) officially launched on 6th October and accepts enrollment from students from outside the professional sports industries. In just under 12 months, LIC has completed courses for 650 students from football clubs worldwide. The partnership with Leeds United FC College propelled LIC onto a different level. Thanks to the Leeds United College partnership, LIC has broadened its reach to the worldwide fan base of this famous club. Now, we have partnerships with many other clubs. In addition, LIC works with the James Lind Institute and Rushford Business School, both based in Geneva (Switzerland). Students can now study for prestigious Swiss Degrees with the same credits that can be obtained in Ireland and across Europe.

Longford International College was initially founded to provide courses to support professional footballers nearing the end of their contract or who have left the game without any prior qualifications. Our early mission was to provide business and sports science-related courses to help prepare professional footballers for the new challenge after sport.

LIC offers via our partners, and we provide accredited diplomas, master's degrees, and one doctoral programme. The course is delivered online and through online live webinars.

LIC is proud to acknowledge the help of many of its friends in the Premier League and is delighted that current players and football legends from Bayern Munich, Manchester United, Chelsea, Leeds United and Arsenal make up two of our present MBA groups.
