"We are absolutely elated with the announcement of the partnership between Vretta and the CFLPA, and excited about what's to come. As football players and professional athletes, we understand the hard work, determination, dedication and commitment that goes into their craft. So, it is critical to make the off-the-field aspect as engaging as possible for these great athletes, by ensuring that they have the necessary level of numeracy under their belt, and are prepared for life outside of football, no matter what career path they choose to go down,"
- Anand Karat, President of Vretta
Every current CFLPA member has access to The Academy and can access a growing roster of accredited educational institutions in the U.S. and Canada, enroll in specialized certification and certificate programs that are gateways to future career paths, or take advantage of online learning opportunities that can help provide new advantages for them and their families.
