n Friday November 16th, 2018 the NCCGA staff is proud to host the 2nd annual Careers in Golf Networking event at NCCGA Nationals. If you are a student looking for an internship or seeking part time, full time, or volunteer work in the golf industry, the NCCGA staff is dedicated to helping college-aged golfers succeed off the course. The goal of the event is to educate students on careers in golf including full time positions in marketing, sales, finance, management, operations, teaching, and engineering. For those students who are freshman, sophomores and juniors, there are hundreds of golf internships available nationally in golf.

Whether you are one of the 348 students attending Nationals or just a student who is part of the Nextgengolf community, the Careers in Golf Networking event is open to any NCCGA club golfer. Anyone attending the event should send a ONE PAGE resume as a word doc attachment to oliver@nextgengolf.org to be included in a resume book for each employer (hard copies will not be accepted at the event).
