Changes Coming to the Maintaining Golf Courses Certificate at the School of Continuing Studies

Posted on November 20, 2025

Effective December 31, 2025, the Maintaining Golf Courses Certificate will begin to phase out. As of December 31, 2026, it will no longer be offered.  

This certificate has been restructured into the NEW Turfgrass Systems Management Certificate, which offers a broader and more integrated approach to turfgrass management across sectors.  

For students currently working on the certificate, a detailed transition pathway is available to guide you through the options to complete your certificate. Visit the Maintaining Golf Courses Certificate Transition Pathway page on our website for detailed information.  

At the School of Continuing Studies, we remain deeply committed to environmental and sustainable turfgrass practices. This change does not signal a move away from those values. Instead, it reflects our commitment to creating more flexible and integrated learning pathways.
