"The Graduate Program exceeded my expectations! I used to look at the numbers from the P&L and think I was doing fairly well and hoped that the next year would reflect better. I now know that I didn't know where I was going or how things were going to work out. I have a much better grasp on how my business has performed and how much better it is going to perform. I'm excited!" Denny Quigley, CPO, Kozy Rest Kampground

The school’s renowned, all-volunteer faculty includes both private and public sector professionals who have been involved with the campground industry for many years and who are committed to improving the industry through continuing education.
