Hospitality Success School was created for hospitality business owners and managers to get training and assistance to build their version of a successful business.
In keeping with the AVTES way of delivering quality hospitality education, we noticed that while accredited training is incredibly effective, it also takes time. And that is an incredibly valuable resource for hospitality business owners and managers.

- staff performance issues
- inconsistent processes

- low staff morale

Dean Normington
Operations Manager, Black Rhino Group
The best thing about having an organisation like AVTES involved in my business is that it gives me the freedom to step back and work on the business, to look at other opportunities and more importantly spend time with my family.

We experienced an increase in sales of well over half a million dollars ($500,000) and I credit a lot of that to the staff. Staff are confident in their roles and are motivated by having a recognised qualification.
