What our customers say

Direction Training has produced an attractive & functional focused hospitality learning management system that is rapidly advancing.

The modules are informative, interesting and tailored to address all the course topic objectives.

Learners knowledge & understanding is assessed throughout the modules with activities that mirror real world situations. These are then followed with feedback that shows the impact of the decisions and choices they have made giving learners excellent insight in the skills and tools required to deliver the required standards of service within all aspects of hospitality.

I have been extremely impressed and so would highly recommend Direction Training”.

What our customers say

“We have been training our staff with the assistance of Direction Associates throughout 2017. Their bespoke training package has assisted us with full induction and many individual training modules.

This has freed up our time massively and by offering the right training we are keeping our hotel and business compliant. Many hours are saved and training can be carried out in the hotel which again saves time and money.

Their on-going developments and improvements are excellent. And very importantly, the customer service is as good as it gets.”

What our customers say

“Congratulations on putting it all together. I do believe this is a great professional and motivational resource for newly recruited room attendants/housekeepers.

A Head or Executive housekeeper using this to support their own training delivery, would set a professional benchmark from which they can discuss with their new member of staff what they have learnt, how their learning fits with specific working practices and what ideas they may have that could be put into practice”

MARY HALL

Hallmark Training. Ireland

What our customers say

As someone newer to the training environment I am looking to bring our hotel training programmes to a new level where learning is more than being told and is interactive, interesting and fun.

These modules engage and offer variety to ensure all our staff improve their knowledge and develop their skills. It adds confidence that they have been written by such an experienced team.
