'Golf for Business and Life' course gives PGM students valuable student-teaching experience

SYSTEM SUCCESS

Golf management students provide lessons as part of curriculum

Students in PennWest California’s Professional Golf Management program are giving lessons to Cal students and staff as part of the program’s curriculum. The lessons are part of the program’s Golf for Business and Life course. The course, designed by Professor James “JR” Pond and the faculty of the PGM program, was developed to give PGM students first-hand experience in the business side of golf to hone their skills before they enter the golf workforce.
