Advanced Culinary Arts and Hospitality Management II: Hospitality Management prepares students for employment in the hospitality industry. It provides the foundations for study in higher education that leads to a full spectrum of hospitality careers. This is a broad-based course that introduces students to all segments of hospitality, what it includes, and career opportunities that are available; provides a survey of management functions, highlighting basic theories and facts; and exposes students to current trends and current events within the industry. Three major goals of this course are for students to be able to: Identify current trends in hotel and restaurant management, distinguish the difference between hospitality and tourism, and state differences in front of the house versus back of the house. Intensive experiences in one or more hospitality industry settings are a required component of the course. A standards-based plan for each student guides the industry experiences. Students are monitored in their industry experiences by the Culinary Arts and Hospitality II: Hospitality Management teacher. Industry experiences may be either school-based or “on the job” in community-based hospitality settings, or in a combination of the two.
