Testimonials
In 1999 I was hired to manage Kaneff Golf which quickly grew to 8 courses at 6 properties. Successfully completing the PAT and achieving Class “A” status provided me with a greater degree of credibility among the 25-30 golf professionals/associates/assistants working at our courses.
Sean Casey, PGA Professional
When I moved here 13 years ago from the Atlantic zone, I didn't know a single member in Ontario. It didn't take long to start building relationships with my fellow members here in Ontario and I quickly realized the value of being a member of the PGA of Canada. I was able to experience first-hand the strong brotherhood that exists amongst our membership. It’s great to be able to pick up the phone and chat with a fellow member and share best practices and ideas that can help us improve and better service our own members and students.
Louis Melanson, PGA Professional
The PGA of Canada has been very influential in helping me build a solid career in golf. I've been a member for 15 years. The education and training were the biggest help for me especially being in a small market, I needed to be well educated on teaching and coaching golf, also the PGA brand gave me solid credentials to attract and retain my clients.
