Extensive Hospitality Courses Offer a New Way for Students to Learn, Managers to Lead and Instructors to Teach

Premier courses in hospitality, culinary arts and tourism are now available through eHospitality Institute. Managers and instructors can use this elite site to locate the latest in educational materials to train their employees and/or students with the necessary skills to compete in these high growth industries, all of which are in the top 10 fastest growing industries in the world.

(PRWEB via PR Web Direct) August 16, 2005 -- A smile goes a long way in the hospitality industry -- but not as far as a good education. More than 350 courses are now available at a newly developed educational site, exclusive to those interested in service positions, such as hospitality, culinary arts or tourism. Now with the combined experience of preeminent educators, the American Hotel & Lodging Association and the Culinary Institute of America, eHospitality Institute's extensive curriculum ensures the knowledge you, your students and/or staff will gain is up-to-date, practical and accurate.

Leading hotel corporations and thousands of properties around the world use these very same courses for their corporate management training and continuing education programs. In addition, more than 1,500 universities, colleges, vocational schools and governmental agencies worldwide use these courses and their relative text.

This premier site for higher learning is the brainchild of Kip Jaros, Ph.D., and Executive Chef Jeff Crawford, who together have helped individuals and corporations in over 17 countries become successful.

EHI is designed to educate students, professionals and those looking to make a career change, without having to give up their jobs to attend tight class schedules and pay large enrollment fees. Students can choose to obtain basic information all the way up to certificates and/or diplomas with worldwide recognition.

"After 32 years in the hospitality and culinary arts industry, it became evident the missing element -- educated employees and management," Jaros says. "Time is an extremely high commodity in this unique industry, and traditional education at times is not an option. My business partner, Executive Chef Jeff Crawford, and I created an Institute where individuals and corporations could turn."

Jaros and Crawford have worked diligently to design an institute that pushes its students to do their best and actually retain the information. Many students graduate with honors and take their marketable skills and diplomas to excel in their professions.

EHI, an extension of Restaurant Workshop, one of the first virtual educational institutes, teaches an extensive curriculum to professionals and students in countries throughout the globe. The American Hotel and Lodging Association, to use all of its coursework and texts, has recently accredited EHI. With this significant addition, their academics now exceed 350 hospitality and culinary arts courses.

"Professional development is crucial for succeeding in today's hospitality industry", quotes Wes Ardis, vice president, allied programs, Educational Institute of AH&LA. "Offering our courses, videos, and training programs through eHospitality Institute is yet another way that EI is able to fulfill its mission to train and educate hospitality professionals."
