Adam Holder,BournemouthUniversity- BSc Hons Sports Management (Golf) – Graduate says, “As a recent graduate, the CMAE has helped me during and after my studies to develop my skills through various mediums, while providing numerous opportunities to network with like-minded individuals both nationally and internationally with ease. This has enabled me to gain a vital insight into the golf industry, something which would prove to be extremely difficult without their presence.
“ Everyone within the CMAE I have come into contact with has been extremely knowledgeable about their specific area and is more than willing to help. This not only provides me confidence of their ability and enthusiasm, but gives me the pleasure, without hesitation of using their services in the future.”
These services are open only to members of the CMAE where student membership is only £30 (payable online), for the great majority of students, just the price of a night out!
