Continue to Learn is the educational part of the BIGGA Turf Management Exhibition (BTME) which is held in Harrogate in January every year. There are events suitable for all levels of employees within the greenkeeping industry, from apprentices all the way through to golf club owners.
Events are split into Conferences, Classes and Seminars.
A great deal of time has been spent compiling the educational programme. Feedback from members and attendees has been taken into consideration and a lot of the programme has been voted for by our members, through Members Choice.
