From 1992 to 2001, SRI partnered with the Professional Golfers’ Association (PGA) to create a new education system for their 30,000 members.
The PGA’s most urgent need was a training program for golf professionals, which evolved over several years. This defined the entrance schooling required of all who would become PGA members. SRI also developed the PGA certification program that evidences a golf professional’s competence in a number of specialty areas, such as running a tournament managing a profitable golf business, and teaching golf.
