The
GMIC has established an excellent track
record since 1999. Here are some samples
of the feedback we've received from both
members of the golf industry and former
students.
Current
Industry Leaders:
"Clubs
such as ours will be very interested in
students graduating from the Golf Management
Institute of Canada. The content of the
program provides them with the tools to
meet the many challenges that will face
them on a daily basis, no matter in which
area of the industry they might seek employment."

Murphy
Chief Executive Officer St. George's Golf
& Country Club,

"I
am well aware of the importance of hiring
highly-skilled and trained individuals who
have chosen to make golf a career. I am
particularly impressed with the Golf Management
Institute of Canada. Their provision of
practical, vocational experience is sure
to bring professional golf management to
a new level."

Kaufman, LL.B., CPGA

GMIC
Graduates & Participants:
"I have graduated in 2010
and after 4 months, I found my job ever
dreamed, thanks to The GMIC which prepared
me through its golf program with all the
necessary tools to be a competitive and
successful professional into the golf
industry.
I am fully convinced and recommend to all,
to study The GMIC Diploma if you want to get
involved in the world of golf and change
your life as I did. "
Guillermo Ordaz
Fonatur/Business Manager
"Palma Real" Golf Course - Mexico
GMIC Graduate 2010
"The
GMIC program is an excellent program for
anyone in the golf industry trying to take
it to the next level. I enjoyed the fact
that I could keep working and have a balanced
schedule of two courses every two months.
The program also allowed me to complete
my PGA of Canada Class A requirements and most importantly
obtain a post graduate diploma in golf
management.
I am currently working in the Bahamas as
a teaching golf professional."

GMIC Graduate 2006
"
I followed a lead given by one of my instructors
and took a position in the golf industry
before the completion of the courses. Just
eight months after graduating from the Golf
Management Institute of Canada I accepted
a senior position in the golf industry and
now find myself in the General Managers
seat at the Brant Valley GC."
Michael
Ellis
General Manager - Brant Valley Golf Club,

GMIC Graduate 2006
"Without
taking the initiative to further educate
myself in the golf industry through GMIC,
I can honestly say that I would not be in
my current role with this organization.
There is no question that allot of time
and effort went into my GMIC studies, but
I found it very rewarding and it has helped
me to continue to further my career."

GMIC Graduate 2005
As
a PGA of Canada Elite Apprentice with a Degree in
Physical Education I was looking for a way
to complete the Post Graduate Education
component of my Class A requirements.
It was through the GMIC where I discovered
the type of classes that are best suited
to my needs. The classes that I have taken
so far have convinced me that once I have
completed the program in full, I will be
ready to take on a higher management position
within any golf club and be comfortable
with the information that I have learned
through these courses in combination with
my own personal experiences."
