BMI Sports & Recreation

BMI Sports & Recreation Management is a five-day, 40-hour, intensive program designed for managers to explore and lead all aspects of the club’s recreational features and offerings in a comprehensive manner. Like the other BMI programs, this program takes a tangible, hands-on approach to the subject matter.

Managers can attend BMI Golf Management, BMI Sports and Recreation Management or BMI Food and Beverage Management to meet the elective requirement in order to sit for the CCM Exam. There is a final project for the program that is required so managers should not make flights out of Phoenix until after 3:00 PM to ensure all programming is met.

A BMI registrant may only transfer their original scheduled class date up to two times; if the registrant requests to transfer class date after the second time, his/her existing registration will be cancelled and refunded to the original payer (minus any penalties).

Any cancellation and/or request to change class date or program must be submitted in writing to the CMAA Education Department by the individual whose name appears on the registration. Cancellation by any party other than the registrant will not be accepted, regardless of the payer. However, if the registrant is no longer employed at the club and the club wishes to be refunded for the registration paid by the club, CMAA will attempt to contact the registrant (providing two weeks to reply) and notify the registrant that CMAA will be refunding the registration fee paid; if CMAA does not hear back from the registrant within the two weeks, the club will be refunded minus any penalties.
