I am currently on track to get my golf associate degree at the end of this next year. I love the course, I love golfing, and I love opportunities to appear like a “specialist”. It’s perfect for me, and I can’t wait to get that degree and into my new career.

Is this real? I wouldn’t think that’d be an actual thing you could get a degree in…but I guess it’s a big enough industry. I suppose it could get you a step up if you were really into golfing…

Ya, my husband would LOVE to hear this. He seems to hate his job a lot, loves to golf. He can’t stay away from those courses. He would love an opportunity to switch careers.

That’s perfect! I’ve been wanting to go into golf resort employment, but haven’t really figured out a way to get started. I actually wasn’t aware you could get a golf associate degree. Thanks for posting this.

Is there anything above an associate degree? If this became more widely known or practiced, I would want to have a step up on those around me. A bachelor’s or some other higher degree could do that.

That’s cool. Maybe I’ll consider it if my current career doesn’t work out (and with this economy, it might not…). Either way, nice to know.

Interesting. My husband and I are constantly golfing in our spare time, and he’s been seriously considering going into the golf business. He’d be very interested in this, it could help him a lot.
