The Diploma

The Diploma is designed to develop experts within Member Associations — supporting the next level of capability beyond leadership and management.

The Diploma targets specialists in key functional areas such as finance, marketing, communications, competitions, and development.

The aim is to:

• Deepen expertise within specific roles
• Strengthen the technical capability of departments
• Ensure best practice is embedded across Member Associations

The programme supports individuals who are responsible for delivering key functions within their organisation — equipping them with advanced knowledge, practical tools, and applied learning relevant to the Oceania football environment.

Delivered through a combination of expert-led content, practical application, and ongoing support, the Diploma ensures that learning goes beyond theory and is directly implemented within the workplace.

By investing in specialist capability, the OFC Diploma helps Member Associations build stronger internal structures, improve performance across key areas, and support the long-term professionalisation of football in the region.

Across all initiatives, our focus is consistent:

• Align with strategic priorities
• Tailor delivery to each Member Association
• Connect learning with real-world implementation
• Create sustainable, long-term impact

By investing in people, leadership, and systems, MA Services builds stronger football organisations and a more resilient workforce in federations across Oceania.
