On this show our guest is Tony Cunningham, Senior Manager Education at the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) who provides an insight into the newly released eLearning platform, ADeL (Anti-Doping eLearning), which purpose is to serve as a central hub for all of WADA’s eLearning courses and resources.

In this podcast Tony explains why and how ADeL was created and how it fits in the the global anti-doping framework. If you are interested in anti-doping and/or education in sport then this will be of interest to you.

This interview specifically focuses on the following questions:

[2:11] Where have you recently traveled to in your efforts to further grow global anti-doping education?

[6:40] Can you please describe what the ADeL system is, and how it came about?

[35:58] How could participating in the online educational course enhance in-person training?
