International Sports Relations Foundation (iSR) signed a memorandum of agreement (MOA) with the Association of National Olympic Committee (ANOC) for the collaborative program, 'iSR Academy'

International Sports Relations Foundation (iSR, President Daesung Moon) signed a memorandum of agreement (MOA) with the Association of National Olympic Committee (ANOC, President H.E. Sheik Ahmad Al-Fahad Al-Sabah) for 'iSR Academy' at the 2nd Asian Athletes Forum in Kuwait, on January 23rd, 2015.

According to the MOA, the agreement is to establish the terms and conditions under which iSR and ANOC cooperate for a period of 3 years to support the study and internship of retired athletes, i.e. IOC Athletes Career Program, financial aid for students from developing countries, joint symposium/forum, and research/publications, etc. In this

respect, this agreement is significant as it requires higher degree of cooperation thus, more legally binding force than a MOU (Memorandum of Understanding).

The iSR Academy initiated by the International Sports Relations Foundation (iSR) is designed to help career transition for the top sports elites and retiring athletes by offering one year of language and work training education combining the 'Athletes Career Program' (ACP Program) which is run by the International Olympic Committee (IOC).

The program is expected to begin in June this year followed by the recruitment of students from all around the world starting from February 15th, 2015 to March 16th. 2015. All the details about the academy and the admission can be found in the iSR website at: www.i-sr.org
