In challenging economic times, making an investment in your people and staff is an even more critical necessity than in prosperous times. In a year where some independent garden centers might be tempted to cut training budgets, The American Nursery & Landscape Association is proud to work in conjunction with Bayer AdvancedTM to launch the innovative BAYER ADVANCEDTM SCHOLARS program in 2009, a fund created to offset education/training costs for more than 75 independent garden centers this year – including scholarships to the 2009 Management Clinic, the 2009 Retail Roadshow, and the 2009 Legislative Conference.
To launch the program, 40 full scholarships ($729 value) to the Management Clinic were awarded. Scholarship package included a full registration to the upcoming Management Clinic (Louisville KY, Feb 6-9), a Muggets networking badge, and a private evening networking reception with ANLA leadership. (Attendee is responsible for transportation to/from and housing at the event.)
The Management Clinic is an unparalleled conference experience, featuring 60 educational programs in 3 days. The 2009 event highlights sessions targeted specifically at creating business success in challenging times. A full program can be viewed at: http://www.managementclinic.org/
