Onboarding Training
Onboarding Training is designed to contribute to the professional development of all employees at a golf facility by providing the knowledge and best practices to contribute to an accessible and inclusive organizational culture that welcomes individuals with disabilities to the game of golf.
This series of five lessons is designed to be completed in order, I through V.
You'll go here if asked to complete this training as part of your employment.
Micro Learning Lessons
Micro Learning Lessons are short individual topics, often subsets of the broader lessons or frequently asked questions (FAQs) related to various issues.
We'll be populating this area with more and more topics after the launch of the Alliance Education Hub.
You'll go here for quick answers to common topics and FAQs.
A La Carte Lessons

We encourage you to begin with the Onboarding Training series, but if you want to pick and choose, go here.
You'll go here if you just want to investigate and learn at your own pace.
