The LPGA Professionals announced today a partnership with Proponent Group to provide business support to its membership, while also offering a reduced fee for access to Proponent Group’s full services suite.

As an Approved Education Provider of the LPGA Professionals, Proponent Group will provide multiple exclusive educational webinars annually for LPGA Professionals members and speakers for select LPGA in-person education events. Proponent Group will also provide exclusive versions of some of its business guides and templates to be made available to all LPGA Professionals.

“Lorin Anderson and his team are known industry-wide for providing comprehensive member education on a variety of topics, and this partnership offers a tremendous new member benefit to LPGA Professionals,” said Marvol Barnard, LPGA Professionals National President. “As the LPGA creates our own library of educational offerings, adding Proponent Group materials adds greatly to our golf business toolboxes. Partnering with Proponent Group is one more step in our ongoing intention to provide the best in member opportunities to LPGA Professionals.”

Since 2007, Proponent Group has focused on providing high-quality career assistance to help member coaches take full advantage of the dynamic business opportunities now within reach of the game’s full-time teachers. Proponent Group accomplishes this through a variety of services including proprietary compensation information, contract negotiations assistance, marketing best-practices, business guides and templates, job-search assistance, in-person and online education, member-to-member information sharing and a business-oriented annual Summit.

“Dozens of top-tier LPGA Professionals have joined Proponent Group to help accelerate their teaching careers since we launched 14 years ago,” said Lorin Anderson, Proponent Group Founder. “Our team is very pleased that this new relationship will make it easier for LPGA Professionals to access Proponent Group’s unique ability to assist golf coaches in optimizing their career and business opportunities.”

LPGA Professionals also benefit from a $100 discount in the annual fee for access to the full complement of Proponent Group benefits.
