They struggle because employees walk into roles without clear expectations, consistent training, or a system that actually helps them succeed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s exactly why turnover stays so high in this industry.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bls.gov\/iag\/tgs\/iag70.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics<\/a> Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) for 2024, the leisure and hospitality sector sees 70% to 80% workforce turnover each year, the highest of any industry. Replacing even one employee costs between $3,000 and $5,800.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ve probably felt that cost already.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From what I\u2019ve seen, the issue isn\u2019t a lack of training. It\u2019s poorly structured training with vague standards and low accountability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This guide breaks down the hospitality training topics that actually work, who needs them, and how to scale them effectively, with ready-to-use courses from ProProfs Training Maker to help you get started faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_Hospitality_Industry_Training\"><\/span><strong>What Is Hospitality Industry Training?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"content-box\" style=\"max-width: 800px; margin: 40px auto; padding: 30px; background-color: #f9f9f9; border-left: 6px solid #007BFF; border-radius: 8px; font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; box-shadow: 0 4px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.1); line-height: 1.6; text-align: Left; font-size: 20px;\"> Hospitality industry training is the structured development of job-specific skills for employees across hotels, restaurants, travel, and related service industries. It covers guest communication, food safety compliance, housekeeping procedures, leadership development, and technical operations, typically delivered through a blend of e-learning, on-the-job practice, and in-person coaching.<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>I want to be specific about the scope here, because it&#8217;s wider than most people assume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hospitality training isn&#8217;t just customer service scripting. That&#8217;s the part everyone pictures. But the real risk usually lies in what gets left out: compliance gaps, inconsistent housekeeping standards, and supervisors promoted without any management training whatsoever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The full list of what it actually covers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.proprofstraining.com\/solutions\/employee-onboarding-lms\/\">Role-specific onboarding<\/a> (not a generic company overview that technically applies to everyone)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Food safety, hygiene, and HACCP compliance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Guest communication: first impressions, active listening, complaint handling<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Housekeeping standards and inspection procedures<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Health, safety, and hazard reporting<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Human trafficking awareness (legally required in many U.S. states, and often skipped)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Menu knowledge, allergen awareness, and upselling for F&amp;B teams<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.proprofstraining.com\/courses\/leadership-and-management-training\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Leadership and people management for supervisors<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Every one of these skills, technical or interpersonal, exists to do the same two things: protect the guest experience and protect the business from liability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_You_Covering_the_Right_Hospitality_Training_Topics_for_Every_Role\"><\/span><strong>Are You Covering the Right Hospitality Training Topics for Every Role?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s where most programs go wrong, and it&#8217;s the most practical thing I can offer you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your front desk team, housekeeping staff, F&amp;B employees, and managers don&#8217;t need the same training.

Here are the ones I keep coming back to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>For Teamwork and Communication<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Three-Armed Bed-Making.<\/strong> Two staff members make a bed while holding one hand each, the whole time. It sounds ridiculous. It kind of is. And that&#8217;s exactly the point. The laughter breaks down walls fast, and the exercise demonstrates what real communication under constraint requires more viscerally than any lecture will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Perfect Square.<\/strong> Blindfolded team members use a rope to form a perfect square using only verbal instructions. It surfaces how people give and receive direction, who dominates, who goes quiet, and where miscommunication enters. The debrief that follows is worth more than the activity itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1022\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.proprofstraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/How-to-Develop-Effective-Business-Communication-Skills-ProProfs-04-14-2026_02_20_PM.png\" alt=\"How to Develop Effective Business Communication Skills from ProProfs\" class=\"wp-image-63527\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"banner-btn newuishow\" style=\"text-align: center;\"> \n  <a class=\"round_btn try-btn\" href= \"https:\/\/www.proprofstraining.com\/courses\/business-conversation-skills-training\/\" target=\"_blank\">View This Course<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>For Problem-Solving Under Pressure<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Lost at Sea.<\/strong> A group logic exercise where teams rank survival items after a shipwreck. It surfaces decision-making patterns under stress, shows who takes initiative, and creates a shared language about how your team actually thinks when there&#8217;s no script to follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Escape rooms<\/strong> (off-site or facilitated) work for the same reason: time pressure, unclear information, no right answer, and no manager to defer to. Genuinely useful, not just fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>For Technical Skill Development<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Role-play the 10-second greeting until it stops being a performance and becomes a habit. Tabletop scenarios for difficult situations (guests refusing to leave, escalating complaints, sold-out rooms with furious walk-ins) build the kind of confident improvisation that policy documents simply never will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The goal is automatic behavior, not memorized procedure. There&#8217;s a real difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Icebreakers With an Actual Purpose<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&#8220;Millionaire Me.&#8221;<\/strong> Each person shares what they&#8217;d do with a lottery win. The answers reveal what motivates people. Directly useful for any manager thinking seriously about retention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&#8220;Personal User Manuals.&#8221;<\/strong> Each team member documents their communication preferences, frustrations, and feedback style. It significantly shortens the getting-to-know-you period and reduces the low-level friction that quietly builds into people leaving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_Look_for_in_a_Hospitality_LMS\"><\/span><strong>What to Look for in a Hospitality LMS<\/strong>?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your current training setup is a mix of PDFs, informal shadowing, and the occasional group meeting, you&#8217;ve outgrown it. An LMS centralizes course creation, delivery, tracking, and compliance documentation in one place. Here&#8217;s what actually matters for hospitality specifically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. AI Course Creation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest barrier to proper training in hospitality isn&#8217;t budget. It&#8217;s time. With an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.proprofstraining.com\/features\/ai-lms\/\">AI-powered LMS<\/a>, you simply describe your training needs, and it generates a structured course in minutes. What used to take days, like building safety or onboarding programs, can now be done almost instantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch: How to Create Online Courses Using AI<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Learn How to Create Online Courses Using AI | Step-by-Step Tutorial | ProProfs Training Maker\" width=\"1120\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0av5hxMnJ6A?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2.

Mobile-First Delivery<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your team is not sitting at a desk. If the platform doesn&#8217;t work fully on a phone during a 15-minute break, your completion rates will tell you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"752\" height=\"649\" src=\"https:\/\/www.proprofstraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/mobile-lms-1.png\" alt=\"ProProfs Mobile LMS\" class=\"wp-image-63373\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Multilingual Support<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A significant portion of hospitality <a href=\"https:\/\/www.proprofstraining.com\/features\/multilingual-lms\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">workforces are multilingual<\/a>. Training delivered only in English poses a risk to comprehension and retention. Look for language support with real localization, not translation-level output.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5. Reporting and Analytics<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For food safety, harassment training, and hazard awareness, you need <a href=\"https:\/\/www.proprofstraining.com\/features\/lms-reporting\/\">documentation showing who completed what and when<\/a>. This is baseline, not a premium feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch: How to Analyze Training Course Results<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How to Analyze Training Course &amp; Quiz Results\" width=\"1120\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1xNt0EcnD4Q?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>6. Gamification and Engagement Features<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.proprofstraining.com\/features\/lms-gamification\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Badges, leaderboards, and branched scenarios<\/a>: these keep hospitality staff engaged in ways static modules don&#8217;t. Low completion rates are often a delivery problem, not a content problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>7. Ease of Use for Non-technical Admins<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Training shouldn\u2019t require technical expertise to manage. If managers can\u2019t quickly create, assign, and track training, adoption will stall and the system will go unused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Free_Hospitality_Training_Resources_Worth_Bookmarking\"><\/span><strong>Free Hospitality Training Resources Worth Bookmarking<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Not everything requires a budget. Some of the most reliable hospitality training resources are free, accredited, and genuinely useful for filling specific gaps before you build out a full program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ServSafe (National Restaurant Association):<\/strong> Industry-standard food safety certification. Free study materials, paid exam. Nationally recognized for compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>OSHA&#8217;s Hospitality Resources:<\/strong> Free hazard awareness guides, inspection checklists, and compliance training specifically for lodging and food service. Available at osha.gov.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>AHLA (American Hotel and Lodging Association):<\/strong> Free foundational resources on lodging operations, guest service standards, and industry certifications through their training portal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>YouTube (seriously):<\/strong> For supervisor development, especially, there&#8217;s a growing library of practitioner-led content on management, service culture, and operations that&#8217;s more relevant than most paid corporate courses. Search by specific skill, not by topic category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are worth using for targeted compliance gaps or as a starting point before building role-specific content on your own platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Is_the_Importance_of_Staff_Training_in_the_Hospitality_Industry_So_Consistently_Underestimated\"><\/span><strong>Why Is the Importance of Staff Training in the Hospitality Industry So Consistently Underestimated?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Short answer: Because when training fails, people blame the employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The importance of staff training in the hospitality industry is most visible in its absence. Guest reviews are dropping. The same complaint appears week after week. A new hire who never really learned the standard, because the person who trained them didn&#8217;t know it either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s what I&#8217;ve found: most industry staff training in hospitality doesn&#8217;t fail because of bad content. It fails for structural reasons. And until you name the structural problem, you can keep adding courses without anything changing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>You\u2019re Inheriting a Culture, Not Just a Team<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>New hires get onboarded by whoever is least busy that day. If that person is doing things the informal way (and most informal ways are informal for a reason), your new hire absorbs those habits. It compounds with every cohort. The fix isn&#8217;t personnel. It&#8217;s designating your best performers as formal trainers, compensating them for it, and giving them a checklist with daily sign-off requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Your Standards Are Too Abstract to Train<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Be welcoming&#8221; is not a trainable behavior. &#8220;Greet every guest within 10 seconds, make eye contact, and use their name if you have it&#8221; is trainable, measurable, and reinforceable. The difference between a team that converts walk-ins and one that doesn&#8217;t is almost never attitude. It&#8217;s precision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Digital Training Is Boring, and Nobody\u2019s Finishing It<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Long modules, dense text, desktop-only, zero relevance to what someone does on shift. Completion rates collapse. Managers quietly stop assigning the courses. For hospitality specifically, microlearning (under five minutes, role-specific, mobile-accessible) isn&#8217;t a nice-to-have. It&#8217;s the only format that fits how people actually work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>There\u2019s No Audit Trail<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can&#8217;t show who completed what and when, you don&#8217;t have a compliance program. You have a hope. For food safety, harassment training, and hazard awareness, the legal exposure from that gap is very real.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Best_Practices_for_Training_in_Hospitality\"><\/span><strong>5 Best Practices for Training in Hospitality<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Knowing what to train gets you halfway there. How you implement it is what determines whether it changes behavior or just produces completion certificates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. Hire for Personality, Train for Skills<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A candidate who naturally makes people feel welcome and needs to learn your POS will consistently outperform someone who knows every menu item but makes guests feel like an inconvenience. Technical skills are teachable. Genuine warmth is significantly harder to build through a module.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/horstschulze.com\/\">Horst Schulze, former President of The Ritz-Carlton and CEO of Capella Hotel Group<\/a>, put it directly: &#8220;Don&#8217;t hire people to fill a position, select people to fulfill a dream and to serve a purpose.&#8221; Weight personality appropriately in hiring.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Use a Phased Onboarding Structure<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The most reliable onboarding programs in hospitality follow a three-phase model:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Foundation (Days 1 to 3):<\/strong> Brand values, safety orientation, POS or reservation system basics, uniform and appearance standards. Delivered via structured modules, not informal chats.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Shadowing (Days 4 to 10):<\/strong> New hires follow an experienced, designated trainer (not just whoever&#8217;s available) through real shifts. Both parties sign off on a daily checklist.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Supervised Independence (Week 2 onward):<\/strong> The new hire takes on tasks independently, with a supervisor available for questions. Performance is reviewed against the onboarding checklist at the end of week two.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The signed checklist isn&#8217;t bureaucracy. It&#8217;s the difference between &#8220;I think they got it&#8221; and &#8220;here&#8217;s the documentation.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Managers Must Visibly Model the Standard<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your policy says greet every guest within 10 seconds and your manager walks through the lobby staring at their phone, the training is irrelevant. Standards only hold when leadership maintains them publicly, every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.proprofstraining.com\/blog\/best-microlearning-tools\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Use microlearning for ongoing development<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A 45-minute onboarding module is appropriate once. A 4-minute scenario on handling a difficult checkout is what someone actually has time for between shifts. Spaced, short-form learning retains better than infrequent long sessions, full stop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5. Measure Before and After<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before launching any training program, decide what you&#8217;ll track: guest satisfaction scores, complaint rates, 90-day retention, upsell conversion, and time-to-competency for new hires. Training without a metric is a cost. Training tied to a measurable outcome is an investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Part_Nobody_Talks_About_But_Should\"><\/span><strong>The Part Nobody Talks About (But Should)<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s the honest, slightly uncomfortable version of this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your training program is almost never the problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The culture around it is.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can have great courses and systems in place, and still see no change if experienced staff ignore them, new hires are rushed into live work, or no one checks whether behaviors actually improve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Training isn\u2019t an event. It\u2019s a system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Courses alone don\u2019t drive results. Delivery, manager reinforcement, leadership behavior, and feedback loops do. Fix those first, then build training around them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(And honestly? That realization alone puts you ahead of most properties already running.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_Actually_Owns_the_Outcome\"><\/span><strong>Who Actually Owns the Outcome?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you pick a platform, before you build a course, before you write a single learning objective: decide who is accountable for whether behavior actually changed after the training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not who assigned the module.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Who checks whether the front desk team is actually greeting guests within 10 seconds? Who signs off that the line cook can demonstrate proper cross-contamination procedures before solo service? Who closes the loop between &#8220;completed&#8221; and &#8220;changed&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When that accountability structure is in place, even a basic training program produces real results. When it doesn&#8217;t, even the best LMS is just a collection of green checkmarks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Build the ownership model first. Then build everything else around it.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>#sp-ea-63530 .spcollapsing { height: 0; overflow: hidden; transition-property: height;transition-duration: 300ms;}#sp-ea-63530{ position: relative; }#sp-ea-63530 .ea-card{ opacity: 0;}#eap-preloader-63530{ position: absolute; left: 0; top: 0; height: 100%;width: 100%; text-align: center;display: flex; align-items: center;justify-content: center;}.eap_section_title_63530 { color: #444 !important; margin-bottom:  30px !important; }#sp-ea-63530.sp-easy-accordion>.sp-ea-single {border: 1px solid #e2e2e2; }#sp-ea-63530.sp-easy-accordion>.sp-ea-single>.ea-header a {color: #444;}#sp-ea-63530.sp-easy-accordion>.sp-ea-single>.sp-collapse>.ea-body {background: #fff; color: #444;}#sp-ea-63530.sp-easy-accordion>.sp-ea-single {background: #eee;}#sp-ea-63530.sp-easy-accordion>.sp-ea-single>.ea-header a .ea-expand-icon.fa { float: right; color: #444;font-size: 16px;}#sp-ea-63530.sp-easy-accordion>.sp-ea-single>.ea-header a .ea-expand-icon.fa {margin-right: 0;}<\/style><h2 class=\"eap_section_title eap_section_title_63530\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions\"><\/span> Frequently Asked Questions <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><div id=\"sp-ea-63530\" class=\"sp-ea-one sp-easy-accordion\" data-ex-icon=\"fa-angle-up\" data-col-icon=\"fa-angle-down\"  data-ea-active=\"ea-click\"  data-ea-mode=\"vertical\" data-preloader=\"1\" data-scroll-active-item=\"\" data-offset-to-scroll=\"0\"><div id=\"eap-preloader-63530\" class=\"accordion-preloader\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.proprofstraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/easy-accordion\/public\/assets\/ea_loader.svg\" alt=\"Loader image\"\/><\/div><div class=\"ea-card ea-expand sp-ea-single\"><h3 class=\"ea-header\"><a class=\"collapsed\" data-sptoggle=\"spcollapse\" data-sptarget=#collapse635300 href=\"javascript:void(0)\"  aria-expanded=\"true\"><i class=\"ea-expand-icon fa fa-angle-up\"><\/i> What is hospitality training? <\/a><\/h3><div class=\"sp-collapse spcollapse collapsed show\" id=\"collapse635300\" data-parent=#sp-ea-63530><div class=\"ea-body\"><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hospitality training is the structured development of job-specific skills for employees in hotels, restaurants, travel, and related service industries.
