The Certification in Hotel Industry Analytics (CHIA), in cooperation with AHLEI, is the leading certification for undergraduate and graduate students, as well as professors, in Hospitality and Tourism programs. This recognition provides evidence of a thorough knowledge of the foundational metrics, definitions, formulas and methodologies that are used by the hotel industry. Recipients have proven that they can “do the math” and interpret the results. They have demonstrated an ability to analyze various types of hotel industry data and to make strategic inferences based upon that analysis. Certification also confirms a comprehensive understanding of benchmarking and performance reports that are used by industry professionals. Recipients have a grasp of the current landscape of the hotel industry, including relevant current events. Achieving this distinction announces that these students have a place among the best graduates in their profession and opens the doors to future career opportunities. Qualifying students receive a certificate of accomplishment. Their names and schools are listed on the American Hotel & Lodging Educational Institute (AHLEI) website and they can use the CHIA designation on their resume/CV and business cards.
CONTENT
The certification is based upon four core content areas:
- Hotel Industry Analytical Foundations
- Hotel Math Fundamentals – the metrics used by the Hotel Industry
- Property Level Benchmarking with STAR Reports
- Hotel Industry Performance Reports (Trends, P&L, Pipeline and Destination Reports)
Course Description:
Widely accepted in all leading business schools as the ultimate experience-building methodology, case studies constitute the core of the Marketing and Sales course for Master of Science and BS 3rd year students.
Students are expected to have previously become familiar with the key foundations of strategic and operational marketing plans. Contrary to a lecture-based approach, the whole program will be dedicated discussing many real-life situations in the hospitality industry. Students have a unique chance of sitting “in the driver’s seat” to identify, analyze and recommend solutions amongst a large variety of challenging situations in hotel management, restaurants and the tourism industry at large.
Objectives:
The key benefits to the students will be:
- Acute development of analytical skills. In real life, when it comes to making an important decision, we often find that we do not have enough information, or too much, or not enough time. Case studies teach how to rapidly identify the key stakes in any given situation and focus on bringing effective creative solutions.
- Development of an effective working process methodology. Students have to analyze the situations, the alternatives and their recommendations by themselves, first. Then, they share points of views with their respective learning team and eventually expose their views to the whole class, following a suggested, logical, 6 steps process. This methodology has proved immensely beneficial in terms of giving students a framework they can easily replicate in their future professional life, when they will integrate larger working groups or will have to manage them.
- Significant improvement of communication skills. Of course, being able to analyze and recommend on a given situation is great. But convincing others that what we suggest is what should be implemented is a whole new game. Like in “real-life”, the discussion in class is a democratic process where no one can be totally certain to possess the truth, but nevertheless has to fight to try and impose his/her point-of-view. And many people fail by lack of proper mental structure or self-assurance. The case discussions will make students aware of eventual shortfalls in those areas and allow them to significantly improve their level of confidence and communication skills.
- A comprehensive survey of the industry. The case studies chosen explore many facets of the hospitality industry, reviewing actual situations that occurred across the world, amongst individual hotels, groups, restaurants, or the travel industry. These examples constitute a unique chance to be exposed, reflect upon and recommend on such a large sample of diversified experiences and provide a valuable accelerated learning process.
