Turning One Week Into a
Lifetime of Opportunities
By Bobbi Nance
E
very time I'm asked about an experience that's worth the investment,
NRPA's Revenue Development and Management School
makes the top of my list. Better known as " Revenue School, "
this unique program takes place in mid-March at Oglebay Resort
in West Virginia, consisting of a one-week immersion into all things
revenue-related in the park and recreation profession in back-to-back years.
Heading there for my first year,
I was nervous about not knowing
anyone else who was attending, but
I looked forward to what the schedule
promised: a week of learning,
about everything from philosophy
and politics of revenue generation
to measuring economic impact.
The most valuable experiences
were the discussion and debate
around those topics and their implications,
being introduced to new
concepts and tools that I could use
right away, and a push to be more
entrepreneurial. All the nervousness
quickly
evaporated, as the
immersive setting made it easy to
build what turned out to be lifelong
connections with fellow students
and incredible instructors.
Since then, I've had the honor of
becoming a graduate, extern and
instructor. What I appreciate about
Revenue School today is the same
as my first day: an opportunity to
take a deep dive into the important
balance between the business
acumen and commitment to purpose
needed to be successful, and
a chance to learn from and get inspired
by a whole new cohort of
professionals. For a school focused
on investment, it should be no surprise
that this opportunity produces
a big return on investment.
