The Golf Course Superintendents Association of America (GCSAA) promoted Kelli Norwood to director of learning and career development of the organization. She has been a part of the GCSAA staff for the last 12 years.
In her new role, Norwood will provide leadership and guidance for GCSAA’s learning and development programs and initiatives, including career development, e-learning, external education, certification and certificate programs and education for the GCSAA Conference and Trade Show.
Norwood joined the GCSAA team as a curriculum specialist in March 2012. In January 2015, she was promoted to senior manager, curriculum, where she made significant contributions to educational programs and curriculum development, according to the company.
The GCSAA said Norwood has successfully led the learning and career department in an acting capacity in recent months while still continuing to manage her existing responsibilities.
“Kelli’s experience and continued dedication to GCSAA members were key factors in her well-deserved promotion,” said GCSAA CEO Rhett Evans. “She has an incredible ability to understand and manage the evolving educational needs of our members. I look forward to working with her in this new role as we continue to support our members’ professional development.”
Norwood has been working in her new position officially since Oct. 19.
“I’m thrilled for the opportunity to lead the Learning and Career Development team at GCSAA and deliver education that makes a positive impact on our members,” Norwood said. “Over the past 12 years, I’ve been fortunate to learn from GCSAA members in many roles and from all walks of life. As the industry evolves, I look forward to continuing to listen, learn and collaborate with members, educators, all our industry partners and the amazing team at GCSAA to keep delivering on our mission together.”
