In 1910, SportAccord, the umbrella organisation for 105 Olympic and non-Olympic sports federations, created a special unit dedicated to sports integrity. The international sports movement has recognised that the fight against the manipulation of results is an absolute priority, and with the support and expertise of the World Lottery Association and the European Lotteries, the global programme has been developed.

Generic tools are available free of charge for use by international sports federations, their athletes, and officials including

• the eLearning programme "How to Prevent Match-Fixing from Destroying Your Career";
• the SportAccord Guide to "Integrity in Sport: Understanding and Preventing Match-Fixing";
• a code of conduct on sports-betting integrity for athletes and officials;
• model rules on sports integrity in relation to sports betting.

World experts have contributed to the programme, including Dr. Declan Hill, author, journalist, academic and recognised integrity expert and Mr. Christian Kalb of CK Consulting, a strategic consultancy company specialised in sport and gambling. The technical expertise for the eLearning programme and Integrity Guide have been provided by SportBusiness.

Sports federations and organisations that choose to make it mandatory for athletes and officials to complete the eLearning programme "How to Prevent Match-Fixing from Destroying Your Career" will require a tailored programme that will enable assessment and certification of athletes/officials in order for them to be able to compete in official sports competitions.
