Facilities Management (WEBINAR)

Overview:

Every Club must manage the facilities it owns or leases so that its legal and contractual obligations are met, maximum use can be made of the facilities and the value of the asset can be preserved, all while bringing measurable benefit to the Club!

This is a challenging and complex environment, making this workshop relevant for all types of clubs.
