Next to the PGA, our certification and credentialization, are the most highly sought after teaching designation in the golf industry.
In
recognition of the industry's
growth, and in response to the
demand for qualified teaching
professionals, the PGTAA was established
to provide extensive training
to individuals as well as recognized
golf teachers with years of experience
behind them.
Not only will we teach you how to teach correctly, but also how to psychologically and philosophically motivate your students to become better golfers.
Becoming
a PGTAA professional is probably
one of the most important steps
you will take during your professional
golfing career. Becoming associated
and certified by the PGTAA not
only enhances your credibility
but also enhances your teaching
skills for the benefit of your
future students and, naturally,
your earning capacity.
PGTAA
graduates have access to positions
as golf teaching professionals
including head professionals at
both private and public country
clubs, golf schools, driving ranges,
golf learning centers, indoor
facilities, high school and college
coaches. Cust om club makers have
added golf teaching as a new dimension
to their businesses. Members also
hold positions as managers of
both public and private golf facilities.
For club fitting professionals, enhancing your professionalism with the addition of our PGTAA Master Teaching Professional certification, is and will be a major catalyst in increasing revenue in your existing business or shops.
And don't just take our word for
it. See what some of our recent
graduates have to say.
The PGTAA's Refuse To Lose™
Philosophy Policy
Special Notice
Please don't
be fooled by imitators of the Professional Golf Teachers
Association of America. It
has come to our attention that
several other organizations are
attempting to hijack our reputation,
mimic our unique programs, especially
our Home Study module, and in
some cases, leverage even our
name, as their own.
While these other
programs and teaching organizations
direct their marketing materials
and resources to the targeting
of all applicants (to cover
their extensive advertising and
marketing costs), whether
qualified or not, the PGTAA's philosophy and target market is
that individual/golfer who desires
to be a teaching professional
in the field and not just an enthusiast.
We do not offer
various levels of certifications
designed to separate you from
your money and whose membership/certification/levels
of instructor cards are
useless and of zero value in the
golf industry.
There is only
one Professional Golf Teachers
Association of America, and
you can always find us at WWW.PGTAA.COM
