What is hotel training?

Hotel training involves providing essential courses tailored to the diverse roles within a hotel. From housekeeping staff to receptionists, waiters, chefs, and bar personnel, each role demands specific training to excel in their responsibilities.

For instance, cleaning staff might require training in hygiene and cleanliness, while receptionists may need customer service and reservation management courses.

Additionally, chefs and food staff need in-depth food management training, and bar staff must undergo alcohol sales training. The key is to find a training provider capable of delivering comprehensive and role-specific training to all your hotel staff, ensuring they are well-equipped for their respective duties.

How do I deliver hotel training courses to my team?

To efficiently deliver hotel training courses to your team, consider implementing a learning management system (LMS), particularly beneficial for large-scale operations. An LMS simplifies role-specific training assignment and allows easy access for deskless workers, promoting flexibility and accessibility.

Access CPL Learning, our platform, offers the added advantage of detailed insights. It provides visibility into course completion at an individual, site, and regional level, offering a comprehensive overview of both mandatory and optional course progress. This not only streamlines the training process but also ensures a thorough understanding of your team's training performance across various organisational levels.
