At the Royal PGA of Belgium, we believe in lifelong learning.
“The moment you stop striving to be better, you also stop being good.”
PGA Coaches and Professionals need to keep their knowledge up to date to best serve their clients. The Royal PGA of Belgium actively promotes this vision by organizing several seminars throughout the year.
The classification system allows a fair assessment of one's involvement during the year in various areas. An updated list is published at the end of January each year and sent to clubs for review.
More and more Clubs are using the Classification List when searching for a new Coach or Professional.

Is your coach/professional not listed? Then maybe he/she is not qualified as a coach/professional or he/she is not a member, or he/she did not apply for the classification....
