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.
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 Chef Jeff Crawford, who together have helped individuals
and corporations in over 14 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.”
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 course work 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."
eHospitality Institute provides its students and educators the most
comprehensive curriculum in the hospitality industry, using a wealth of books, DVDs, software, videos and online
multimedia training methods. For those thinking of entering or advancing in this dynamic field, course previews and
counselors are available. Students may select from a vast assortment of courses, including culinary arts,
food and beverage management, tourism, guest services, club management and much more. Students, who select courses
that conclude with certificates or diplomas, are assigned individual instructors to guide them through their studies.
The following 12 months after graduating from the institute, students will find assistance in job placement,
additional support, or guidance without additional fees. For complete details visit:
