Assistants & Associates Network

In an effort to maintain the momentum and growth that AoT Networking cultivated within the Ontario Zone, we are excited to announce that AoT Networking is rebranding to become more inclusive and to represent this group more accurately.

Going forward, this group will be known as the Assistants & Associates Network (AAN).

These sessions will be led by our AAN representatives Dylan Cattanach, Jake Adams, and Connor Averell. Please feel free to contact them for any questions, content suggestions, or inquiries related to Assistants & Associates Network activities.

Registration for all AAN events will be available on the PGA of Ontario website, and will remain open to all PGA of Canada members as well as industry professionals across the country.
