Our Mission
|
The United States Golf Teachers Federation-Foreign Language Courses, through innovative, effective swing mechanics, and teaching methodology, establishes a national and international standard in training and certification for professional golf teachers. In addition, the USGTF-FLC provides services for its members and promotes the organization and the golf teaching profession.
|
USGTF-FLC strives to create progressive learning and training system using foreign languages (currently Korean, Chinese, and Japanese) so that non-English speaking people would have a chance to approach our certification program with ease.
Our goal is to teach participants in every aspect of the game. Certification is available to anyone interested in teaching golf as full time or part time profession. USGTF programs train and certify the well qualified teaching professionals.
Currently, we provide 3 languages courses: Korean, Japanese and Chinese. These courses will be conducted by same standard and cost as regular course of USGTF and will later expand with more languages depending on future demands of teaching professional candidates.
Founded in September, 1989, the United States Golf Teachers Federation began making history by training and certifying golf teaching professionals for the golfing public. By opening the door to those that previously were never given the opportunity to teach golf, the USGTF started a trend that has led the game through two decades of growth and popularity never seen before. Today, the USGTF is the largest national organization of certified golf teaching professionals in the world. The USGTF is a founding member of the World Golf Teachers Federation® and is one of 42 member nations that make up this entity. Both Federations help to establish the world’s standard for golf teaching professionals.
The USGTF educational theme is that of progressive learning. We incorporate four levels of certification for the golf teaching professional. One may select any level of certification that is necessary for your needs. It is not required to attend Level I or Level II prior to attending the Level III Full certification. This approach allows you the opportunity to progress comfortably at your own pace in the golf teaching industry. To become certified, it does not require one to have any prior experience in the golf teaching industry, except of course, the ability to play golf at a level of acceptability. For this reason, passing a playing ability test is required for Level III & IV Full Certification.
