Student Support - Hospitality & Tourism Management

Help our students attend the most important conference in the country

In 2021, eight of our seniors  attended the Club Management Association of America World Conference.  Eight of eight received job offers and are currently employed in the industry.  Attendance at this conference, exposure to the industry, and engagement with leaders and employers is one of those VALUE ADD pieces that makes WCU's program so special.  

Student leaders have utilized support from multiple areas of campus to make the trip to Orlando in March but we need your help!

As the country club industry’s largest annual gathering, over 6000 professionals attend this conference to enhance industry education and opportunities to network with other professionals. Students will be exposed to country club managers for future internships and career opportunities as well as networking opportunities,  attend the industry expo with vendors from all over the world, and have the opportunity to attend management seminars from well-renowned speakers.  

Attendees will be networking to apply for internships, on-site interviews, and employment opportunities, allowing them to communicate effectively and responsibly with industry professionals.
