Introduction to the Program
The perfect program to master the characteristics of the different modalities regulated by the UCI”
The International Cycling Union (UCI) has traditionally been in charge of governing Cycling worldwide. Under its tutelage, more than 200 national federations are represented and, above all, 10 different cycling disciplines are managed and regulated. Such is their relevance that 5 of them are part of the Olympic Games programme, 4 are included in the Youth Olympic Games and 2 in the Paralympic Games.
But each of these modalities has its own specificities, and if the sports professional wishes to be a versatile cyclist, he must specialize in different particular characteristics. Fortunately, this can be done hand in hand with TECH through a program that focuses on the wide range of competitions regulated by the UCI.
In fact, it will be an academic experience of great value for the athlete, since it will not only focus on sports particularities, but will also examine the different regulations and determine the performance limitations in each of the disciplines.
Undoubtedly, a very necessary specialization to promote the student's sports activity in this area. In addition, the Postgraduate certificate is highly compatible with the work on the athlete's bicycle, since its online nature means that you do not have to make transfers to face-to-face centers, with the consequent saving of time that it entails. Likewise, you will be advised at all times by a teaching team that has positioned itself as a solid reference in this matter.
