LAWRENCE, KS—STMA has added an assistant Education Manager to its staff. Effective today, Kristen Althouse, a Penn State grad and former STMA scholarship winner, will begin concentrating on the educational needs of the STMA membership and developing resources to meet those needs.
The STMA strategic plan focuses on the continuing education of our membership and delivering education that is relevant, affordable and accessible. To address this need, the STMA Board authorized the addition of a full-time employee to the current four-person staff. The Board’s vision is to advance STMA and the profession through educational offerings.
Althouse will telecommute from Pennsylvania where she was most recently an assistant golf course superintendent at Centre Hills Country Club in State College. She also worked on the Penn Sate grounds crew for Beaver Stadium. Her background includes project management, training, and sales and marketing.
