Class Operations/Facility Coordinator

Teren
Major: Sport Management The type of internship I was assigned was to fill certain roles that of a Program State Director/Cheer Program Manager/Class Operations/Corporate Management. I spent a majority of the time working in the class operations department with scheduling, booking and coordinating events, advertising and marketing, hiring and human resources, customer service, quality control. In the Young Champions inventory and accounting departments, I dealt with budgeting, facility profit and loss review, class report processing, inventory design, and order processing. I was given the opportunity to gain overall knowledge on how a business functions from the small details to the big picture. Over the course of this internship, I gained insight to customer expectations by working in depth with the quality control team. I was in charge of scheduling for over 200 class locations for more than one program (cheerleading and self-defense) which allowed me to sharpen my organizational skills. This was also true for our event scheduling and planning. The event coordinating aspect of my position assisted me in developing management and other team leadership skills.
