The study analyzes the student sport managers’ attitudes to the professional competencies in the context of the individual professional career strategies and the relevant educational paths. The study found the students rating high the competencies cultivated by the educational process for their professional careers; with the certain dichotomy between the highly rated professional competencies and lower rated general cultural competencies as reflected in the individual learning behavior and strategies. The high academic progress rates were found correlated with the high rates of the general cultural competencies and high priority given to the elective humanitarian special courses. The students with high research and/or educational ambitions were tested to rate higher the general cultural competencies. The initiatives to bridge the gaps in the specific professional versus general cultural competency rates shall be designed based on the relevant integrated education methodologies as follows: (1) research methodologies to support the athletic progress; ( 2) facilitating social environment building for the physical education and sports sector; (3) securing due synergy in the general cultural competency building in the professional sport training system; and (4) modern world outlook building in the individual sports-prioritizing cultures.

Keywords: sports, competencies, profession, culture, personality, student.
