For the past 12 months, I have been helping to manage the Australian PGA Trainee Program as the Training Manager has been on maternity leave and taking care of her new baby boy. This has meant that I have been nice and busy with work and haven't had much time to do anything else. This has been a challenging but rewarding time in my career but I am glad that things are now starting to move back towards normal.
This week, after a little reshuffle of the PGA Education team, my new role is that of Continuing Education Coordinator. This position will allow me to build, develop and work in and on the PGA's ACE Program. I will be able to develop more online modules for the PGA Members to have access to, I will be able to be more involved in the PGA's ACE face to face training sessions and I will be able to further develop the webinar program that I helped begin last year. If you are a PGA Member reading this, please keep your eye on the ACE page of MyPGA for new modules, webinars etc.
As well as doing this work on the ACE Program I will be writing more and researching more. So what sort of topics will be coming up on my blog? I am going to be writing about more coaching specific topics that will align more with the research I will be doing to start to move towards a Ph.D. I will also be writing about practice advice and tips for golfers looking to improve their games and scores. These posts will be published on a very regular basis so make sure you check back often.
I am also part of Team MFG which is a team of skilled professionals put together by US PGA Member Mike Fay and you can find lots of great information from Team MFG by clicking here.
Make sure you follow me on Twitter, Facebook to keep up to date with my latest news and information.
Until next time,
