The Club Managers Association of America is proud to announce today that it has named 100 new Certified Club Managers.
The Club Managers Association of America is proud to announce today that it has named 100 new Certified Club Managers. The CCM designation indicates that a club management professional has completed a rigorous course of study and training and shows a dedication to, proficiency and expertise in club management.
The CCM has been the hallmark of professionalism in club management since 1965 and is the cornerstone of CMAA’s member recognition program. It is a valuable and widely-respected mark of a manager’s commitment to professional development and the club industry. In order to receive the CCM designation, one must be a Professional member of CMAA for at least six years, invest time in specified education requirements, attend at least one World Conference and maintain activity within their local chapter. After these conditions have been met, the individual must pass the CCM Exam. Attainment of the CCM title shows a long-term commitment to professional development and club management.
The size of these two classes is worth noting, as they are the final group of managers to earn their CCM under CMAA’s previous requirements. New requirements became effective following the first administered CCM exam in January 2014.
