KPGA to Train Retired Players as Professional Golf Instructors
Training Program to Nurture Talent for Corporate and University Lectures
Career Transition Support for Retired Players Backed by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism
Post-Training Steps Include Portfolio Building and More
The Korea Professional Golfers’ Association (KPGA) is supporting new career development opportunities for retired players.
On June 24, KPGA announced that, with the support of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, it is recruiting students for a training program designed to cultivate golf instructors who can be linked to employment or dispatched positions. The program aims to nurture professional golf instructors who, based on their experience and expertise as KPGA players, can work in a variety of educational settings such as corporations, universities, public institutions, and civic education organizations.
The main objective is to move beyond traditional golf lesson-focused activities and to foster professional instructors who can design and deliver golf as an educational content. Trainees will systematically learn about golf content planning, lecture design, public speaking and delivery, personal branding, and practical business skills.
