Since joining the PGA in 2000 I have been looking to learn, research and develop myself both as a person and as a coach. The PGA gave me a platform to do this and I would encourage all PGA Professionals to improve their skills and use the PGA facilities to learn as much as possible.
“The PGA qualification is respected around the world and if you can improve your PGA reputation, it will help you to further your career and gain more respect from clients and peers in the golf industry.”

Common to all five of these members is their desire to continue to improve and advance their activities.
“The PGA's ability to recognize their significant achievements is at the heart of PGA Excel. We are seeing increasing numbers of PGA Members starting their PGA Excel applications and the feedback we always get from those who have completed the program is that, although it can be challenging, it is very important to reflect on their careers to date and provide focus or encouragement to plan and develop careers in the future.”
