Dual Career

What is it?

We have many options for Italian, English and other languages speakers to study, live and train in Milan in an international setting. Our agreements with leading Elementary and International Baccalaureate High Schools in Milan and with undergraduate and graduate Universities give Academy athletes the best of academic and sport success. Our agreements allow study in a language of choice while pursing their sporting goals and all with Academy values.The Academy is not just a sporting club. It is a community of sport that works with our partners to ensure that our members thrive in every area of their life – in sport, in academics, post sporting career and as healthy minded supported people. We believe our partners in Milan manifest these same values and support our athletes in their dual goals of academic and sporting excellence and personal worth.

In a few words – you will get the opportunity to train at FCA and study at one of our education partners.

I want to certify as a coach

The Academy has the right to grant certification as Monituers, Prévôt , Maestro and Maestro de Armes through the historic International Academy of Arms (AAI). AAI certification is recognized by national federations as meeting or exceeding certification standards for fencing coaches. We offer two options: Our camp system of occasional training and our in-residence training program in Milan working with our coaching staff in intensive periods.

The Academy has run various programs in Canada, United Arab Emirates and other places for coaches who wish to certify or to enhance their coaching skills working closely with our maestros and staff.

There are two modes of training to choose:

(1) During one of our international camps or

(2) in residence in Milan during a scheduled intensive period for coaches or ad hoc dependent on schedules of maestros for those visiting Milan for short periods.
