Hospitality Management Course On-line

Hospitality Management Course. Wendy Jackson went to a 4 year college and spent $60,000 or more in time and money. Bob Simons spent 15 hours on-line on a hospitality management course. Both of these people landed the same level jobs. A $50,000 plus bonus sales manager job.

College is great, and you learn a lot of life skills, but to succeed in the hospitality business, you don't need a four year degree. Some of the highest paid and most successful individuals I know in the hotel business started as entry level hotel sales managers with only a hotel certificate on their resume. One of my associates now earns $225,000 per year in the hotel business and started his career with an on-line certificate that cost less than $300.00.

The better hotel certificate programs provide you with the practical skills you need to get started in the hospitality management field. They don't focus on theory, but rather get down to what you need to know and how to interview to land the job. They skip the general marketing, brochure development, and collateral develoment, and teach you what you need to land the entry level sales manager job. Reality is......no one starts at the top of the hotel industry. But.....you can start at a mid-level managment position.

Some of the best on-line certificate programs are www.ahla.com www.ecornell.com and www.aprinda.com Each one of these organizations offer solid programs for managment certificates. If you have the time and funds to go to college, we always suggest you do so. College is a great life experience. But if you need to make money and land a job now, the hospitality field allows you to get started now...... and fast with an on-line program. Some courses can be completed within 14 hours from the comfort of your home.
