CERTIFICATE AREAS

MINI CURRICULUMS

Thanks to the overwhelming success of our flagship Business of Sports program, we’ve received many requests to expand our catalog—and we’re listening. What sets our sports program apart is the real-world industry experience behind it, making the content both enriching and engaging for students. That’s why we believe it’s essential for all new offerings to be shaped by industry input to ensure they reflect current practices and real-world relevance. 

Over the next two years, we’re excited to roll out a series of new mini-curriculum course resources—short, high-impact units designed to bring fresh energy and flexibility to your classroom. 

Topics will include sneaker design and marketing, sports management, and more—each crafted to spark student interest while building valuable business and marketing skills. 

Stay tuned—there’s more to come! 

MINI-CURRICULUM UNITS

  • SNEAKER ESSENTIALS (COMING 2025-26)
    In response to teacher requests, we’re excited to introduce Sneaker Essentials—a mini-curriculum launching next year that explores the business of footwear, from product design to marketing and sales. Designed to engage students through a culturally relevant and fast-growing industry, it can be used as a standalone unit or bundled with our other programs. With major brands like Nike, Adidas, and Columbia Sportswear headquartered just miles from us, you can be confident the content reflects real-world industry practices.

INDUSTRY TESTIMONIALS

“As someone who trains and coaches industry professionals, I see the difference that hands on practice makes in learning and development. That’s why I’m such a big fan of Chris’ approach. He’s lived in the industry and knows real world situations, so he can expose students to real life application of what’s being taught in a way they can absorb and retain the content. This isn’t just theoretical, this is a difference maker.”

“We love hosting students involved with Sports Career Consulting’s programs. SCC does a great job preparing students with their curriculum for a future in the business of sports.  They are also dedicated to providing out-of-the-classroom experiences, creating an environment for students to learn more about sports marketing and career opportunities. These are exactly the kind of students we look to hire during the season!”
