The Association of IOC Recognised International Sports Federations (ARISF) and the International Testing Agency (ITA) will collaborate to provide anti-doping education to ARISF's 39 member federations in 2025. ARISF members will have access to the ITA International Clean Sport Educator Programme, which includes online modules, expert-led sessions, and peer learning. Graduates will then deliver anti-doping education and implement anti-doping programs. Additionally, a multilingual webinar series will be launched, with simultaneous translation in multiple languages, including Arabic, French, Mandarin Chinese, Russian, and Spanish. ARISF decided last year that its members shall delegate the management of their anti-doping activities to the ITA.
