In the Country Club and Sports Management Certificate program, students will learn about club and sports operations, sports marketing, food and beverage management, the managing of special events, and cost control. This program emphasizes customer service, leadership, and the building of relationship skills.
Country Club and Sports Management courses will be offered in a fully online format. The program is open to undergraduate and graduate students at Piedmont University regardless of major and is also structured for students who may have already earned a two-year or four-year degree or have completed some courses toward a bachelor’s degree. It is designed to meet the needs of students who may not be able to attend classes on campus in Demorest or Athens regularly.
Current undergraduate students at Piedmont University and those who have completed the admissions process for freshman or transfer students may pursue the Country Club and Sports Management Certificate.

• An application for admission with any required essay;
• Official transcripts from the college or university where the student attended or completed an undergraduate degree;
• An official transcript showing at least 30 undergraduate hours and evidence that the student is in good standing at the last institution attended; and
• A statement of intent outlining why the student wants to take non-degree classes.
Students who already hold a bachelor’s degree or higher may apply through Graduate Admissions.
