staff training

Staff training and education for the hospitality and retail food trade that allows business owners to keep their focus on the business’ and their own core competencies.

These programs allow the small business owner to educate and train their staff in new food and service trends on an as-needed basis without committing to costly, and often easily outdated, canned training resources. The business owner can also custom-tailor these classes and programs to the specific needs of their staff and customers. This inherent flexibility saves both time and money. Classes can also be videotaped for use with new hires and refresher courses.
