Ian Foster doesnt have one, as reports in today's media suggest that we are been overlooked for the Europa League spot in favour of Sligo due to this.
Id imagine all others in the Premeir Divison have them.
We now know that Shoddy Collins doesn't have one but that Tommy Dunne, his assistant at Cork City does have one.
Does anyone know which other managers do and dont have licenses?
The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

How long does it take to do? Are there courses run on a regular basis? I know its a series of workshops but are they run weekly.
Just wondering is it something that Shoddy and Foster could complete before the season starts really?

The FAI ran a course for all LOI Premier managers at the time a couple of years ago. I remember Alan Mathews did it whilst with us anyway. So I'd imagine most of them will have it.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
Brendan Place currently taking the course, along with Jeff Kenna.

I don't think Kenny does. I thought him and Anthony Gorman were doing it in Belfast last year, but someone told me recent he doesn't.
Eddie Gormley, Paul Cook & John Devine did their Pro Badges in 2009.
Mike Kerley has one
I have one.
It's like a library card, it's cool.
The Pro Licence involves a fair bit of study and submission of a thesis/report. Didn't Roy Keane do his work experience down in NZ with the All Blacks? It's all part of cross training and preparation.
Is it expensive to do?
