FRONT-LINE HOSPITALITY TRAINING

Front-Line Hospitality Training is an all day session designed for those members of your staff that come in direct contact with customers.

Attendees will not only get the "Denver Visitor Experience" by touring a number of the city's most popular attractions, but will also be engaged in various educational components, such as:

Information about Denver that is essential to all front line associate's knowledge of the city
Practical customer service training for use in their daily tasks
A number of new resources for your staff to take away and reference as needed

Our day will conclude with all attendees receiving "Go the EXTRA Mile" certification.

The next Front-Line Hospitality Training will be held on May 25, 2017.
