Last week, Debbie Wieland and Sarah Fox from the Texas Hotel & Lodging Association had the pleasure of attending the Hospitality Educators Association of Texas (HEAT) annual conference hosted at the Omni Dallas Hotel in Dallas, Texas. It was inspiring to connect with so many dedicated teachers who are working tirelessly to raise awareness about the diverse career opportunities in the hotel industry for high school and college students. Supporting these educators with valuable resources is always a privilege. Interested in classroom tools and materials for teachers and hoteliers?
