The Alpha Administrator’s Handbook has been designed to take you through every stage of setting up and running an Alpha course on a step-by-step basis. Alpha courses come in many different shapes and sizes. With the size of courses currently ranging from 2 to 600 guests, the administration involved varies considerably. Undeniably there is work involved in running a course, but effective delegation, team planning and use of resources ensure that the process is manageable and fulfilling.

One thing that has been proven to be a fundamental part of running a successful course is to follow the recipe. Alpha is tried and tested. It has been running for over twenty years. Every aspect of the course is there for an important reason. This handbook is designed to enable you to maximize the impact of your hard work in running an Alpha course. The Alpha Administrator is responsible for doing all the work behind the scenes for the course. The administrator should be well organised, outgoing and friendly.
