Synopsis
Aims to more effectively share with students and professionals desirable management practices embodied in the Standards for National Accreditation. The standards are divided into ten categories, which form the basis of the 21 chapters of this book. This book uses the CAPRA Standards to develop an understanding of the components of park and recreation management. Each chapter addresses specific standards, with the standards listed in the Compendium. The thrust of this book is on management of the public agency, the nonprofit association, and the private for-profit enterprise that operates parks, recreation areas and facilities, providing recreation programs and services. It is not on the management of individual parks, or the conduct and supervision of specific recreation programs or leisure services. It is focused on what the manager should know, not what the program director/supervisor or the maintenance supervisor should know.
