Tristar Hotel Group announced today the launch of HMBookstore.com, its online bookstore for the hospitality Industry. The veteran management company worked closely with the University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV) to develop this best-in-class, online educational resource for students, universities and industry professionals.
“We are honored to partner with UNLV, a university recognized for shaping tomorrow’s hospitality leaders,” said Ken Edwards, owner of Tristar Hotel Group. “UNLV has incorporated HMBookstore’s educational tools into their summer internship program and they look to continue with our E-Books moving into the fall semester.”
HMBookstore provides professional learning tools at a fraction of the cost compared to text books, and it is available to universities, independent properties, hotel management companies and hotel brands. Developed by industry veterans, the online library includes comprehensive training from entry-level to management for over 40 key hospitality positions. HMBookstore addresses today’s fast-paced world as students and employees have immediate access to E-Books, course materials, and supplemental items to jumpstart learning. Mastering the diverse hospitality arena can now take place at all hours of the day and night, and all on the user’s own computer.
Each E-Book contains curriculums specific to hospitality positions, including front desk, back-of-the-house, management, and food and beverage. Within each curriculum, a series of courses are administered with random quizzes to reinforce learning. Instructors and hotel management companies are provided with a full array of reports to track the progress of the students/users, and upon successful completion of an E-Book, an official certificate is generated that can be downloaded and/or printed.
