New challenges exist in a club environment, and continuous learning is essential for success. Our Online Academy offers a range of courses specifically designed to empower accounting teams and enhance their skills. Currently, we have three fantastic offerings:

  • Club Finances for Bookkeepers and Junior Accountants: Dive into accounting fundamentals tailored for club operations.

  • Micro-Credential: Optimizing Club Operations for Success, focusing on educational offerings presented at the HFTP 2024 Annual Convention.

  • Micro-Credential: Leveraging AI for Club Success, based on the HFTP 2024 Annual Convention Club Forum presentation.

But that's not all! We’re excited to announce that two new courses are on the horizon: Club Finances for Accountants and Club Finances for Managers.  These upcoming additions will further enrich our curriculum and provide more targeted learning opportunities for you and your team.

Investing in training and development is crucial. By leveraging these resources, you can help your accounting teams stay ahead of industry trends, improve their expertise, and ultimately contribute to your organization's success.

Perhaps a team member in another department has shown interest in accounting but needs more background. Courses like the Club Finances for Bookkeepers and Junior Accountants would be an excellent fit for developing employees. Consider including some of our offerings when creating your team’s succession planning and professional development paths.

Don't miss out on these opportunities! Check out our new platform for more information on courses and how you can get your team started on professional growth.
