The PGA of GB & Ireland know that one of the best opportunities for learning is the work-based environment. In Golf, this is the golf shop, the driving range, putting green and of course, the course itself!
High-quality learning and development assumes that the learner in question, in this case the PGA Trainee Professional, has a learning and development need, that addressing this would value-add to their practice, that they have evolved learning strategies and are appropriately supported in the field.
The PGA Professional is perhaps best placed to assume the role of a mentor and provide supported practice to help accelerate the PGA Trainee's ability to:
Organize and deliver coaching sessions for individuals and groups
Assist in organizing and running competitions
Perform clubs repairs and custom fitting
e.t.c coaching consultants (Linda Low and Sarah McQuade) are thrilled to partner with Mi-Mentor and lead the delivery of the third PGA Training Professional Mentoring Program for 22 Club Professionals from across GB and Ireland.
The program offers access to world-leading mentoring concepts and tools using the custom built PGA MiMentor Platform.
The Mentoring Programme is built into learning blocks, delivered over 6 weeks and adopts a blended approach using online courses and webinars to provide PGA Professionals with access to:
An Introduction to Mentoring
Profiling and Supported Practice in the Field
The Art and Architecture of Questioning and Listening
Reflection and Development
This third cohort has been equally as thoughtful, engaging, and curious about what mentoring is and does and how they can do it better. Feedback from this cohort suggests they enjoyed:
The self-development and increased awareness about what mentoring is and is not is a game changer.
MASSIVE thanks to Linda Low for lending her expertise and support to help these PGA Professionals evolve their mentoring knowledge, skills, and practice. And to James Baker, our digital partner at MiMentor.
Thank you to the PGA of GB & I for trusting MiMentor and e.t.c to lead the learning and development of perhaps your best people development asset, the PGA Professional!
