Alexandria, VA – The Club Management Association of America (CMAA) announces the six newest club management professionals to attain the designation of Certified Club Manager (CCM). This diverse group of individuals represents professionals working in the US and South Africa.
First established in 1965, the CCM designation is the hallmark of professionalism in club management. It is a valuable, internationally recognized, and widely respected mark of an individual’s commitment to professional development and the club industry.
The CCM designation indicates that a club management professional has completed a rigorous and extensive course of study and training and demonstrates a dedication to proficiency and expertise in club management. To achieve and obtain the CCM designation, one must invest time in specified education requirements, attend at least one World Conference & Club Business Expo, and maintain activity within their local chapter. After these conditions have been met, the individual must pass the CCM exam.
Congratulations to these club management professionals who recently met their CCM requirements!
