Athabasca University (AU) has teamed up with the Canadian Football League (CFL) to help players and fans achieve their educational goals, 'Beyond the Game.'

As a digital university, AU hasn't had an official football team … until now!

We've been working closely with the CFL and league affiliates for over five years. It's exciting to expand our partnership.

Becoming the official education partner of the CFL enables us to align with an organization that is committed to expanding opportunities beyond the game for players and fans in Canada and around the world.

With the newly enhanced partnership, AU and the CFL will work together to deepen their connection through several fan-facing initiatives throughout the season, playoffs, and Grey Cup.

Moving 'Beyond the Game,' the CFL and AU will create interactive and fun activities for players and fans alike that encourages them to achieve their educational goals beyond the game.

Regardless of a person's profession or where they are at in life, it's important to look beyond what is happening right now. Whether it's a single online course or a full program, AU empowers learners to realize their educational goals, beyond borders and barriers.

As Canada's only fully online digital university serving more than 40,000 learners from coast-to-coast-to-coast and all around the world, AU is committed to removing the barriers that prevent access to and success in university-level education
