In the last few years, interest in dual career topics has increased enormously in the European Union (EU), leading to several initiatives in different countries aimed at developing dual career programs. According to the European Union's (EU) lexicon, the term dual career describes “an athlete that combines, without unreasonable personal effort, their sporting career with education and/or work in a flexible way through high-quality training in order to protect their moral, health, educational, and professional interests without compromising either objective, with a particular focus on the continued formal education of young athletes (European Commission, 2012)”. Thus, dual career programs aim to allow student-athletes (SAs) to combine education and high-performance sport. A dual career program is needed since both activities are time- and energy-demanding and often require traveling or living abroad for long periods of time. Without support, athletes may find themselves in the situation of having to choose between study and sport, thus compromising their right to an education. To date, each country in the EU is addressing the issue with their own methods.
