Our traditional Retail Academy class allows us to fly 3-5 people to our headquarters in Birmingham, AL to engage in a day-and-half, retail intensive education process in our new state-of-the-art classroom.
We have also worked with multiple communities to host a large event at a centralized location, and coordinated with State institutions to initiate grant programs.
