Alexandria, VA – The Club Management Association of America announces the latest CMAA members to have attained the designation of Certified Chief Executive. The Certified Chief Executive (CCE) designation was developed to recognize those managers who have shown the ability to successfully serve as the most senior manager in a club.
Meant to augment the Certified Club Manager (CCM) designation, seen as the “hallmark of professionalism” in the club industry, the CCE requires managers to have achieved the CCM designation, to have obtained Honor Society status by earning an additional 400 hours of education, to have successfully completed Business Management Institutes Tactical and Strategic Leadership, and to have served as the top executive in a club for a minimum of five years.
The following members successfully met all CCE requirements in the last quarter of 2021:
- Bryon Hammock, CCM, CCE, Ranier Golf & Country Club, Seattle, WA
- Chris Hodson, CCM, CCE, Ausable Club, St. Huberts, NY
