Many occupations require short-term preparation or continuing education for certification or licensure.

Your hospitality workers are on the front line interacting with customers and clients, and to ensure they represent your business with professionalism, we developed an engaging and interactive day of training for the sector. Developed in partnership with the Texarkana Chamber of Commerce, Texarkana Convention and Visitors Bureau, and the Hospitality Group of Texarkana, our training takes an in-depth and hands-on look at who is a customer and who are your customers both internally and externally.

“Our local hotel staff shape the first impression of our community. By offering hospitality training to our hotel employees, they were able to see what Texarkana has to offer a visitor. They left with an understanding about the importance of our tourism economy, and how their role influences the opinions of guests.”

“I had never thought about doing anything further in my nursing career than becoming a nurse practitioner, but these teachers have impacted me in such a big way. I have been able to grow as a whole, well-rounded individual, not just academically. It has opened my eyes to becoming a nursing instructor myself one day.”
