Two coaching development opportunities available this October

10/09/2024

As we transition from summer to autumn, coaching demand is set to increase as golfers look to refine their skills ahead of the new year. This is the perfect time for coaches to elevate their techniques and embrace innovative training methods.

PGA Master Coach, Jonathan Wallett, has dedicated his career to the development of golf coaches across the world, establishing courses, workshops and conferences for those professionals that wish to take the effectiveness and enjoyment of their coaching to the next level.

He believes that the PGA offers coaches the perfect platform to learn and establish themselves as great professionals within the game to which he tries to help build upon through CPD events, to not only enhance their coaching abilities but to grow the game of golf entirely.

Wallett explained: “During my career I have met PGA Qualified Professionals who have gravitated to many different career pathways, the list is endless. But the starting point that opened these doors, has been the PGA qualification.

“The concept of focusing your career and life’s work around your passion is a good one, with the PGA qualification being a strong platform from which to develop, and PGA Excel, the vehicle to help define your expertise and have it recognised by the industry.

“PGA Excel is helping members differentiate and distinguish their specialties, and critically it helps the golf industry understand their specialist skills to help propel the careers.”

As part of his work, Wallett offers two exceptional opportunities in October for coaches worldwide to engage with industry leaders, learn new skills, and develop their coaching careers.

Elite Performance Coaching Certification Course

Starting on Monday, 7th October, the Elite Performance Coaching Certification Course is an eight-week online programme that covers essential areas of coaching, including player development, performance practice, focus, communication, client relationships, and skill acquisition.

Delivered through weekly one-hour webinars by 10 world-renowned coaches, this course is designed for all coaching levels, from beginners to elite players. With over 250 coaches already enrolled, the course offers a three-tier education system, culminating in the prestigious ‘Master Performance Coach Certification’. Weekly assignments, PDF handouts, and workbooks are provided to enhance your learning and can be utilised in coaching sessions.

Wallett states: "Many coaches feel they are on their own, but being part of a global network of like-minded professionals has enabled many to secure roles as regional or national coaches or to establish their own successful academies.

“This course is not about promoting a certain swing theory or model - it’s about sharing coaching strategies in the technical, mental and management areas of the game which you can use with all your coaching clientele to assist them accelerate their progress.

“We are looking to develop your ability as a coach and to increase the tools at your disposal in your ‘coaching toolbox’. These courses are aimed at motivated coaches who are keen to develop their coaching ability.”

PGA Professional Adam Hedges was one of many coaches to take part in the course during its last iteration and found it to have a positive impact on his coaching standards. Adam joined several other coaches to thank Wallett for his dedication to help others develop.

“Thank you so much for being such an inspiration to me and my coaching. You are a true expert and gentleman. For me, the way you present and speak to people is making a profound impact on me. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to learn from you in this course”.
