Is the Advanced Diploma for you?

Do you have an area of specialism?Is your career leaning more towards one area than another? Looking to upskill and reap the rewards…? Read on.

The PGA Advanced Diploma is a distance-based qualification that allows you to progress in your own time, at your own pace, and in an area pertinent to you and your role.

With two strands available (Coaching or Business) the qualification recognises that as a PGA Professional you may have developed an area of interest since you qualified and, as a result, it allows you to demonstrate and document some of the understanding that you have gained in that time.

The ‘coaching strand’ will have you look at biomechanics, psychology, ball flights and more. On the other side the ‘business strand’ will take you through marketing, managing people, developing competitive advantage etc… Better yet, if you complete all five modules in a strand you will awarded a PGA Advanced Certificate in Coaching Studies or Golf Business Theory. Not sure you want to do one or the other? Select the most pertinent modules to you from each and earn a PGA Advanced Certificate in Golf Studies.

Further, if you do two extra modules you will be awarded a PGA Advanced Diploma.

At just £50 per module the PGA Advanced Diploma offers you a cost-effective and geographically convenient way to develop your skills and earn some CPD points in the process (75 per module).
