Peshawar: The Sizzler Training Institute for Hotelling and Restaurants recently collaborated with the Tourism Corporation Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (TCKP) to organise a one-day training workshop on tourism and hospitality in Malakand, a news source reported. As per officials, about 100 representatives of various restaurants and hotels located in the division were issued the programme’s invitations.
The aim of the workshop was to train staff and improve their conversational and management skills. Further, lady trainers present at the occasion placed great importance on the hospitality extended to tourists and their security.
Tourists prefer to stay at places which are hospitable, peaceful and clean, so the staff needs to be made aware of these needs, stated tourism official Ilyas Khan. He added that serving tourists well was of utmost importance to make them return to the same place again. It is also necessary if hotels want to increase their number of visitors, he added. The KP government is also working on ecotourism schemes for this purpose.
As per reports, an increase in the number of these workshops is expected across the province. The trainers said that holding these training sessions was important in order to improve the capacity of the hotels, their staff members and enhance their overall performance.
