Reid enrolled in the Hospitality and Tourism Essentials online course to give him a head start on graduate school. He reflects on the course and his student success.
I learned to analyze trends in the industry, market to different groups, and create my own business plan.
ON CHOOSING HOSPITALITY & TOURISM ESSENTIALS —
I enrolled in this online course to prepare myself for the travel industry profession. I am actually going to grad school at New York University to earn my Masters in Travel and Tourism Management. So, I knew the program would be professional and educational.
ON BEING A YELLOWBRICK STUDENT —
All of the Vacation Planning Assignments were great practices for helping consumers plan a great vacation.
STUDENT ACCESS IN REAL-LIFE APPLICATION —
I learned to analyze trends in the industry, market to different groups, and create my own business plan. The world of travel and hospitality is always changing. However, the industry is able to adapt to new trends and will evolve with new creative ideas.
ON THE PAST & WHAT’S NEXT —
My student success looks like beginning to work at the Hyatt Chelsea in New York City. I will apply what I have learned in this course.
