It’s bursary season for PGA of Alberta members!

Hot off the presses, we are excited to announce the PGA of Alberta will be offering not one, but two, bursary opportunities in 2024.

We are pleased to offer four bursaries, each valued at $1,000, available to all seasonal and year-round Apprentice Professionals and Class "A" Professionals. A minimum of two bursaries will be reserved for seasonal Apprentice Professionals, working nine months or less.

We are also excited to introduce a new addition to our bursary offerings: the Jim Jempson Bursary. This prestigious new bursary will award $2,500 to one individual and is open exclusively to Apprentice Professionals.

Jim Jempson was a distinguished life member of the PGA of Canada and a recipient of the PGA of Alberta Lifetime Achievement Award. His dedication to promoting excellence and growing the game of golf left a lasting impact on our community. The Jim Jempson Bursary honours his legacy and continues his commitment to the development of golf professionals.

 Don’t miss this opportunity to support your professional growth. Apply for these valuable bursaries today and take a step forward in your career!

The winners of all 2024 bursaries will be announced at the PGA of Alberta Awards Ceremony, on October 23, at the Calgary BMO Centre, to close off the second day of the PGA of Alberta Buying Show.

The deadline to apply is end of day on September 30.  With the deadline fast approaching, please act now to secure your chance to receive this financial support! Apprentice Professionals are welcome to apply for both the PGA of Alberta Bursaries and the Jim Jempson Bursary.
