Following the launch of the new CAF Club Licensing regulatory framework, as well as the CAF Club Licensing Online Platform (CLOP) in 2022, the Club Licensing System has embraced significant changes in its application and operation, resulting in the need for CAF to update the technical resources. The objective of the workshop was to focus on the training of potential candidates who could be assigned by CAF to impart knowledge and expertise on club licensing support missions, and conduct training related to the usage of the CLOP.informationguideNigeria

CAF Head of Professional Football, Muhammad Sidat, highlighted the importance of the forum and said:

“The Club Licensing System had its inception in the African football landscape back in 2012, and since then, it has gone through an evolutive process. In 2022, CAF rolled out major changes to the Club Licensing System regulatory framework and introduced the CAF Club Licensing Online Platform (CLOP), an electronic tool system designed to manage the licensing process online. As a result, there was a need to train a new generation of Club Licensing Instructors and CLOP Experts to face the new demands of the system and support CAF in its quest to properly implement club licensing in our member associations.”JAMB Result
