Taking the SMWW Athlete Management course was a transformative experience for me. The course provided in-depth knowledge about contract negotiation, athlete representation, and sports marketing, all of which are crucial for a successful career as a sports agent. The highlight was the guest speaker sessions with seasoned sports executives, which offered valuable industry insights and networking opportunities. This course has equipped me with the skills and confidence to advance my professional career in sports management.

"The SMWW course covered a lot of information and helped me learn to identify the intangibles in players and to evaluate talent and categorize based on talent. At the National Scouting Report, I focus on Basketball, Baseball, and some Football and I help connect student-athletes with coaches at schools that need their talent set." 

Thanks to my taking the SMWW course I now represent  NFL Players. Everything that SMWW taught was right on and it worked for me. If you have a love for sports and people, I would recommend that you go for it. I was practically computer illiterate. The course and the Agent Advisor Program have pushed me to do things in life that I probably wouldn't have done otherwise. I have made a lot of new friends and I'm excited to see where things can go from here. I want three players next year!"

I was a Pro Goalie for 21 years and had to retire suddenly due to an injury, without any direction concerning my future career. I was immediately impressed with the SMWW concept and felt that enrolling in their educational programs could be greatly beneficial to my professional future off the ice. SMWW online education is the way of the future bringing the sports world together. SMWW chats provide an excellent forum for the exchange of ideas and relating of experience, and networking with people from all over the globe. I have just completed the Agent Management Course and will stay with SMWW as an Agent Advisor. I have also enrolled in the Hockey General Manger Course and am looking forward to the guidance of SMWW and EJ Hradek. I wish I had come across SMWW 10 years ago. Dr. Lashbrook is a great mentor with impressive knowledge and leadership.

I took the Football GM & Scouting class to pursue my dreams of working for a NFL team. What I have gained from it, is a hard-core inside look into the NFL and what teams look for as a NFL player. I'm currently working as a director of football operations. I would recommend any individuals that are looking to become a sports agent and/or work in football take the time to invest in any of the SMWW classes. I took two. SMWW teaches you and helps you understand what it takes to be one of the best sports agents in this industry

Although the Athlete Management Course had an American slant I still found the content of the course very helpful to me as a European student and also I had fantastic support when needed. The Athlete Management Course gave me useful insight into how sports agents work overseas and how the industry worked. It gave an international outlook on the business of athlete representation. The Agent Advisor program is continuously improving and I enjoy being a part of it. I found the SMWW network of agents especially supportive and enhanced my opportunities greatly. The Agent Advisor network is very strong and is committed to succeeding which I find very motivating. The SMWW website is great for athletes of all nationalities to gain insight into the company and discover what we are all about. I have found the athlete referral system to be highly organized and it has worked well. I think there are many ways to move forward in the sports industry and SMWW is doing just that.

The Athlete Management Course has given me a chance to help others, as well as myself and my family, and given me a new found feeling of respect. Everything about this company is impressive and professional. I now have the documentation I need, business cards, and professional SMWW training to recruit and mentor professional athletes as an independent contractor for SMWW. Where else can you get this kind of valuable support?

Dr Lashbrook is so passionate about the Athlete Management course I feel the vibes all the way in the United Kindgom! The material is really interesting and it gets you excited the more you learn. I've gained great knowledge and confidence to start to work with SMWW in an Agent Advisor role.
