Accelerate Your Career

The Golf Course Management Certificate program exists to train students to obtain golf careers in the golf course industry in such areas as course superintendents, golf shop managers, event sale managers, financial bookkeepers, customer service, and even general managers or directors of operations. The certification program includes nine golf-course specific courses that have academic and practical components.

Program Overview

The program includes course-specific readings, qualified professor lectures, discussion forums to test reading retention, and written assignments to show understanding of course concepts. On-course conversations with golf professionals and field study notes give students the practical application of course learning. Courses are offered online, two courses each during a seven-week term.

Traditional students must pursue the certificate in addition to another MNU degree. Professional students may earn the certificate stand-alone.
