The PGA has extended its Partner agreement with leading customer service analysts and Training Provider 59club, taking the close relationship between the two organisations past 12 years.
As part of a new three-year extension, through significant investment from The PGA, the Association and 59club, the family of Branded PGA Properties can now enjoy considerable benefits.
Those benefits include Mystery shopping, testing of PGA National Golf Courses and Academies, e-learning and training resources plus exclusive networking opportunities with other PGA Branded Properties.
In addition, a bespoke ‘PGA portal’, affords PGA branded Properties remote access to 59club resources and industry recognised benchmark reports. These reports can be viewed at any time, allowing venues to compare their results against other 59club venues, and set benchmarks to advance.
PGA Branded Properties will also benefit from a dedicated point of contact to this project, offering advice and support as well as making sure each venue is taking full advantage of these new opportunities.
Commenting on the new agreement, Richard Barker, PGA Executive Director – Business Development, said: “We are absolutely delighted to be able to continue this mutually beneficial relationship and journey with 59club.
