This is the first Pitchcare email aimed solely at our community of Greenkeepers. In it, we hope you will find information, products and offers aimed and tailored for golf course management.

‘Essential Management Skills’ course

New course dates for 2007

Pitchcare is pleased to announce that it will be running its successful ‘Essential Management Skills’ course at various locations in Autumn/Winter 2007. The course is delivered by trainer and careers counsellor Frank Newberry. Frank, a regular contributor to the Pitchcare magazine, has trained Groundsmen and Greenkeepers for more than 15 years and this course is aimed at helping those in a supervisory or management position to acquire a range of vital management skills and put them into practice successfully in the workplace.

Unlike generic management training, Pitchcare’s course content has been developed specifically to suit Groundsmen and Greenkeepers, which is essential if delegates are to successfully implement their new skills in the workplace.

Three months separate the two days so delegates have the opportunity to implement new techniques and then feed their experiences back to the group.

Attendance certificates will be provided to delegates who complete the course. For further information, please contact Pitchcare’s Training Coordinator Christine Johnson at chris@pitchcare.com.

More details will appear in the training section of the website soon.
