Autumn 2008 and February 2009
We shall be repeating this popular and successful course next Autumn/Winter at St Albans, again 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.
Unlike generic management training, Pitchcare’s course has been developed specifically for groundsmen and greenkeepers. It is aimed at helping those in a supervisory or management position to acquire a range of vital management skills and successfully implement them 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.
The course qualifies for 5 CPD Credits.
