100% ONLINE. 100% FLEXIBILITY.

No Pro Shop Hours

We don't waste your time with the boring side of golf like running a pro shop. That's not what GLE is for. GLE is for people who want to learn how to teach the game of golf.

Focused On Teaching

We teach you how to teach. No boring business or admin stuff required. We get right to the good stuff: how the golf swing works and how to diagnose (and fix) faults.

The Quickest Route

Go fast, go slow. Your timeline to becoming a Certified GLE instructor is entirely up to you. We've seen folks become fully certified in under 6 months. The choice is yours!
