What is the classification for a Teaching Professional?

The classification for a Teaching Professional is the A-6 Classification. This designation is specifically assigned to professionals whose primary responsibility is teaching golf. Those with A-6 classification are recognized for their expertise in instructional techniques and methodologies, as well as their ability to communicate effectively with students of varying skill levels.

This classification underscores the importance placed on teaching within the PGA and signifies a commitment to enhancing players' skills through dedicated instruction and education. The other classifications, while also important, focus on different aspects of the profession, such as management or operations, and do not specifically pertain to teaching roles. The A-1 Classification, for instance, is typically associated with general PGA members, while the A-4 and A-8 classifications relate to other specialized roles within the golf industry.
