Question

What qualifications are needed to be a profesional golfer and assistant pro?

Answer 1

You dont need qaulifications!! you need to be good at Golf!!!!!

Answer 2

You need to be at least a decent player.  The Playing Ability Test is quite simple. You'll have to shoot about 150-155 for 36, depending on the difficulty of the course under tournament conditions.  Retail, accounting, and management experience would be helpful. If not, you'll learn lots of that on-site and in your PGAM courses. The PGAM program can be learned all about at pgalinks.com.  Good Luck.

In order to become a PGA member, you will need to become a registered apprentice and go through the PGA Professional Golf Management (PGA/PGM)TM Program. In order to register into the PGA/PGMTM Program, you must:

Meet the Eligible Employment requirements described below.

Eligible Employment

Individuals shall be eligibly employed in one of the following classifications.

You must be eligibly employed at the time of registration and for six months within the 12 months prior to registration.

Participation in an amateur event will forfeit all work experience credits earned prior to the event.

Satisfy the PAT requirement. (Playing Abilities Test)

An apprentice registration form verifying employment and documenting your review of the Professional Readiness Orientation (PRO) must be signed and submitted by you.

In order to become a registered PGA apprentice, you will pay all apprentice fees for National and your Section and will purchase the Level 1 Kit.

When step 4 above is completed, you are a registered PGA apprentice.

Acceptable Progress is defined by successful completion of each Level's Checkpoint. In order to remain in good standing, the Level 1 Checkpoint must be successfully completed within two years of the Level 1 start date.

The Level 2 Checkpoint must be successfully completed within four years of the Level 1 start date.

Level 3 Checkpoint must be successfully completed within six years of the Level 1 start date.

To be an assistant pro you need to show experience in assisting prostitutes.........being a pimp for instance.
