When looking for individuals to fill coaching, physical education, and sports management opportunities, companies look for individuals who have the capability to improve the current situation (Bullen, et al. , 2015 ; Odio and Kerwin, 2016) . Today, educational institutions offer their students a variety of out of school learning options (Özkara, 2019) . Internship possibility is one of them. This process, which brings theory and practice together, is important for gaining the advantage of students in the competitive environment in the developing sports industry. The ability of individuals in the sports industry to improve the current state of the sports activities is determined on the basis of the amount of experience held. This has led to an increased concern on the significance of experience in the sports industry and ways through which the experience can be improved for increased chances of  \nsecuring jobs. As a result, a number of studies have been conducted whereby different ways of improving experience amongst internship professionals are critically evaluated and the best measures recommended. An internship is one of the ways that have been recommended by the majority of scholars in the field of sports (Zakrajsek et al. , 2015) .  \nInternships absolutely present the best alternative that sports professionals can get experience while either in college or after graduating. Current research shows that internships give sports professionals the jump start that is needed in the sports industry. There are actually many reasons as to why the internship is of great importance in the working life of a sport professional. This has resulted in scholars directing much of their efforts in addressing the different ways through which the interns can maximize their benefits from the opportunity provided (Hebert et al. , 2017; Hee, 2017) . Research shows that interns who are not paid something in compensation for their efforts end up not getting the jump start needed in  \nthe sports industry. This is due to the fact that the interns remain demotivated and focus on looking for other internship opportunities (Brown and Tenison, ","cbCaibsv3TouQcLB","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibsv3TouQcLB","pdf",253490,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Internship as out-of-school learning\n## Importance of experience in sports careers\n## Paid vs unpaid internships\n## Job description and internship effectiveness\n## Supporting interns through mentorship and structured work","[{\"question\":\"What does the study review about sports professionals’ education?\",\"answer\":\"The study reviews out-of-school learning experiences, focusing on how internship participation affects the future career life of sports professionals.\"},{\"question\":\"How were articles and sources selected for the systematic review?\",\"answer\":\"Articles were searched electronically in ProQuest and Google Scholar, and additional hardcopy documents were collected from different sports journals.\"},{\"question\":\"What impact does internship practice have, according to the results?\",\"answer\":\"Internship practice and other out-of-school experiences increase sports students’ knowledge and skills, which improves their preference with employers.\"}]","African Educational Research Journal - Volume 8 - Issue 2 - Full Length Research Paper - Systematic Review of Out-of-School Learning Experience of Sports Professionals | PDF",1792070675,15]
