The Club Management Association of Canada and Signature Risk Partners Inc. Announce Three-Year Partnership Agreement
TORONTO, Ontario (February 4, 2025) – The Club Management Association of Canada (CMAC) and Signature Risk Partners Inc. are pleased to announce a three-year partnership agreement. The CMAC Corporate Partner program recognizes industry partners, which share the values of CMAC and offer members support as leaders in the club management profession in Canada.
CMAC’s vision is to create great leaders through excellence in professional club management and its mission is to promote and develop the profession of club management. The Association offers a range of programs and services in response to member needs and expectations including the certification program leading to the Certified Club Manager (CCM) and Certified Chief Executive (CCE) designations. Access to career opportunities, and a forum for networking for COOs, GMs, clubhouse managers, food and beverage supervisors, golf superintendents, chefs, and other professionals involved in club management are also important offerings of CMAC.
"Signature Risk is proud to deepen our relationship with CMAC," said James Grant, president & CEO of Signature Risk. "Collaborating with CMAC and its leadership allows us to support their mission and enhance the club management profession across Canada.

Drawing on over 17 years in the industry, we developed Signature Club—an insurance package designed to protect clubs, their members, guests, and amenities."
