Organized and directed by the NCAA Leadership Development department, the Career in Sports Forum was created to provide student-athletes with a broader scope of the career tracks available within the sports business, focusing primarily on intercollegiate athletics. The forum provides student-athletes interactive experiences with successful individuals in sports business, providing a glimpse into their day-to-day duties and responsibilities.

Participants who expressed an interest in pursuing a career in sports and who were viewed as leaders on their campus were invited to the Career in Sports Forum after being nominated by athletics administrators at their respective schools.
