TORONTO, Ontario (October 10, 2018) – The Canadian Society of Club Managers (CSCM) is delighted to announce that Kimberley Iwamoto, CCM, CCE, General Manager of The Ranchmen’s Club in Calgary, Alberta has attained the designation of Certified Chief Executive (CCE) and joins the 19 other CCEs in Canada. The CCE 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 designation is the hallmark of professionalism in club management established by the Club Management Association of America in 1965. The CCE designation was created in 2007. CSCM launched the Certification Program in Canada in 2004. The CCE designation is a valuable, internationally recognized, and widely respected mark of a manager’s commitment to professional development and the club industry. In order to receive the designation, one must invest time in specified education requirements, have previously achieved the Certified Club Manager (CCM) designation, provide mentorship to new CSCM members for a one-year period, and maintain activity within their local Branch. Attainment of the CCE title shows a long-term commitment to professional development and club management.
CSCM extends its sincere congratulations to Ms. Iwamoto who will be recognized at the 2018 CSCM National Conference being held October 13-17, 2018 in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
