Objective: The purpose of this research was to present a model for the analysis of the professional learning community among sports coaches in the country.Methodology: The research method is descriptive-correlational in terms of type, applied in terms of purpose and survey in terms of execution method. The statistical population included: university professors, organizational managers, trainers and analysts who are experts in the field of the research topic. The statistical sample was estimated to be sufficient for modeling in smart pls software (number of hidden variables x selected base number) (106 people). The sampling method was purposeful (judgmental). The research tool was a questionnaire related to the components of the model approved in the qualitative section. The validity of the tool was confirmed in terms of content (confirmed by 8 experts), reliability (composite reliability index) and structure (SRMR = 0.075).Results: The results showed that challenges (0.287), backgrounds (0.269), drivers (0.267), organizational network (0.254) and trainers' capabilities (0.065) ) respectively had a significant effect on the formation capacity of the professional learning community of educators.

The participants of the present study were 18 elite immigrant athletes and coaches who were selected in a purposeful way using a case-by-case method. To check the scientific validity of the work, four criteria of reliability, stability, verifiability and transferability were used.
Results: The antecedents of the migration of elite athletes were categorized into three main categories: social weaknesses, professional weaknesses, and motivation for personal development and progress, and in the section of the consequences of migration for the country's sports, two main categories were the loss of funds and the creation of a negative image.
