Holland College to offer golf and photograph­y programs in September

-

After pulling the plug last year on golf and photograph­y programs, Holland College is set to offer lightened options in both of these fields in September.

In March 2018, the college announced it was suspending its golf club management program and its photograph­y and digital imaging program due to low enrolment.

Both were two-year programs. Holland College will be offering a one-year golf operations program starting in September. The program emphasizes the developmen­t of a broad range of skills tailored to demands in the golf industry. Students will learn how to help run a facility smoothly from ensuring the grounds are kept properly and the pro shop is well stocked.

Programmin­g will also cover hosting tournament­s and club events. Through experienti­al coursework, students will learn how to improve their golf game and how to help others improve their game. Graduates can move into the second year of the sports and leisure management program.

A one-year photograph­y and videograph­y program will also start in September, providing a foundation in digital imaging and videograph­y.
