PGA Works Fellowship
Through the support of PGA REACH, the charitable foundation of the PGA of America, the Wisconsin Section provides a 6-8 month paid immersion to help staff our Foundation operations. The fellowship is a program that offers access and experience to individuals from diverse backgrounds—whether by gender, age, race or color, national origin or ancestry, sexual orientation, disability, religion or Veteran status—in the area of golf administration. Currently there are fellows in eleven PGA Sections across the country. This entry-level employment experience offers a taste of what a career in the golf industry can provide.
Fellowship Opportunity Posting: Normally posted online in December or January.
