## Description

The Professional Golf Teachers Association of America (PGTAA) is an organization focused on training and certifying golf teachers. Founded in 1997, it presents itself as an authority on golf-teaching science, methodology, psychology, and player development, with an emphasis on teaching and communication rather than golf operations or pro-shop management. Its certification program is designed for aspiring instructors and awards successful graduates the title of Class “A” PGTAA Master Teaching Professional.

PGTAA offers a self-paced home-study certification course, with no time limit for completion, and an optional five-day on-site training program for eligible home-study graduates. The curriculum covers instructional skills, swing mechanics, equipment fitting, mental strategies, and player development. Students receive direct mentorship and support from founder and director Dr. Barry Lotz. The organization also promotes continuing education, teaching support, preferred liability insurance rates, and personal-use equipment discounts for members. Its website features testimonials, golf instruction resources, equipment and travel reviews, articles, and a golf shop offering courses, books, apparel, and training aids.
