Jones departed Manchester United after 12 years, having played very little football during his final three years at Old Trafford due to injuries.
The 31-year-old was part of the last Manchester United side to win the Premier League title under Sir Alex Ferguson in the 2012/2013 season and also won the Europa League and FA Cup during his time in the red half of Manchester.
The former England international is still without a club but has not called time on his playing career.
In the meantime, the former Blackburn Rovers defender has outlined his aspirations for the future which will see him make his mark from the touchlines.
Jones posted on X (formerly Twitter): "Start of a new journey.
"Great to begin the global football sport directorship course with the PFA business school, learning new things about the game, whilst also continuing to push ahead with my A licence and badges at the club that gave me so much. Excited to get started."
Jones made 229 appearances in total for Man Utd and scored six goals.
