Since the PGA of Canada was founded in 1911, mentorship has been an integral part of the golf professional’s journey toward gaining their Class “A” status. Over these years, mentorship has evolved from informal to formal experiences with learning outcomes, deliverables, and more.

This mentorship course is designed specific for members who wish to learn more about the golf operations and careers to teaching. Note: there is a separate course specific to teaching specialization.
