Nature of the Work

 Lodging, restaurants, travel, and tourism can be as different as the many guests they accommodate. Whether a family taking a summer vacation, an individual attending a concert, or a group of people attending a convention, you can find management as a core component in the hospitality industry. As a manager for the Hotel, Restaurant, and Tourism Industry, individual work to ensure that the operational components are functioning properly to maximize daily profitability of the business.

Mangers must be able to make quick decisions, analyze and solve problems, provide daily, weekly, and monthly reports, and provide quality service to colleagues, employees and guests. The Hotel, Restaurant, and Tourism Management Program here at Athens Technical College will prepare students so they will be able to excel in the industry as managers.
