Seventeen coaches have finished the 71st DFB Pro License course. They now have new skills for their jobs.
All 17 participants in the 71st DFB Pro License course have received their licenses from the DFB. This group includes Dennis Schmitt, who is the U-21 coach at Eintracht Frankfurt, and Sandro Wagner, who has experience in the Bundesliga.
The course lasted twelve months. It mixed in-person and online learning. Participants did tasks online and used their knowledge in their clubs. They visited top clubs like Brighton, Chelsea, and Barcelona.
David Krecidlo, assistant coach at VfB Stuttgart, said the visit to La Masia, Barcelona's youth academy, was a key part. He liked the training methods and the friendly welcome they got.
The graduates include Niko Arnautis from Eintracht Frankfurt, Theodoros Dedes from formerly TSG Hoffenheim, Markus Fiedler from formerly 1. FC Magdeburg, and others from different clubs. This group shows how education helps coaching in football.
