The Armada Club, formerly known as the 110 Club, is a way for CCIS to celebrate our larger groups. We invite the trip leader of these groups for a relaxing evening of cocktails, great food, and camaraderie with colleagues and friends.
How Does It Work?
Once 250 trip participants travel with CCIS as a result of your introductions, you and a guest will be invited to attend the next Research Team Summit! Ask your account executive for our Introductions Form. CCIS will bank all of your referrals from one season to the next and notify you when you are close and achieve 250 traveling trip participants.
Remember…
CCIS has clients from coast to coast and beyond. Consider friends and colleagues who teach in other states.
Consider other groups within your school. Not all of our clients are music groups.
