Trainer tip: Real guest feedback examples (positive and negative) are compelling and relatable.
Temperature control, cross-contamination, allergen management, personal hygiene and HACCP principles for food handlers.
Trainer tip: Certifiable completion is the value — hospitality operators need proof for council inspections.
Menu knowledge, recommendation language, wine pairing basics and how to increase spend per head naturally.
Trainer tip: Show the maths — a 10% increase in average spend per staff member per shift is compelling for managers.
Responding to TripAdvisor and Google reviews — negative, positive and fake — to protect and improve your reputation.
Trainer tip: Response script templates for the 5 most common negative review types are extremely valued.
Bed-making standards, bathroom presentation, turndown service, lost property and room inspection checklist.
Trainer tip: Illustrated photo checklists work better than written instructions for this audience.
Room configurations, AV setup, catering coordination, run-of-show documents and dealing with last-minute changes.
Trainer tip: A downloadable run-of-show template with the lesson makes it immediately useful.
Occupancy, ADR, RevPAR, dynamic pricing principles and how OTAs affect your rate strategy.
Trainer tip: Work through a real pricing scenario — showing how to react to competitor rate changes is the money shot.
