PGA WORKS FELLOWSHIP: A WELCOME INVITATION TO WORKFORCE DIVERSIFICATION IN GOLF

Briana

The PGA WORKS Fellowship is the flagship diversity and inclusion program of PGA REACH, the 501(c) (3) charitable foundation of the PGA of America. The PGA WORKS Fellowship aspires to be the most valuable entrylevel employment opportunity for individuals from diverse backgrounds to garner golf industry experience. While each PGA WORKS Fellowship experience will vary depending on the needs of the host PGA Section, the common thread focuses on foundation programming consistent with the mission and purpose of PGA REACH and the host PGA Section’s Foundation. Candidates apply through the host PGA Section and must have completed an undergraduate or graduate degree program within the past 12 months. Eligible Fellows are passionate about diversity and inclusion in the game and business of golf; willing to consider a career in the golf industry; and believe in the mission of PGA REACH. The PGA WORKS Fellowship program is expanding to the following PGA Sections in 2018: Middle Atlantic, Carolinas, Michigan, New Jersey, Gateway, Northern Ohio, Southern Ohio and South Florida. The goal is to have an annual Fellowship position in all 41 PGA Sections. For more information, visit PGAREACH.org.
