FAU Hospitality Certificate - Free (Not ACE)
#1
Hi All,

I joined in on this freebie from Florida Atlantic University. They got 60K registrations so they were swamped! It's usually $900 - good for anyone wanting to work in tourism. NOT Ace accredited - -just enrichment.

If interested, see this link for waitlist:

"If you have others interested in joining our waiting list, those individuals will have a start date in early May and an email will be sent to them in the near future if they have signed up for the wait list. In the interim, please have anyone who wishes to join the wait list visit: https://faucboep.radiusbycampusmgmt.com/ssc/eform/G0lA70Gd803m0x670c5q.ssc
 
Again, we thank you for your patience, understanding, and for choosing Florida Atlantic University (FAU). We welcome you!

My son and I are both registered and taking this.  It is perfect for him, he works in Food service and his hours have been cut quite a bit. He has the Pierpont BOG AAS, and wanted something Industry Specific on his resume, anyway.  The timing was perfect. 

I decided to take it for enrichment and I am going to be job searching after the school year ends.  I thought it would be nice to have something current on my resume.  It will also add to my interesting assortment of jobs and education.

Thanks for the posting.  I just received word I start on May 13th.  I was on the waitlist.  A total of 65,000 signed up.    Unlike edX and other third party Certificates, this is "direct" from the University.  A better cool factor.  How did you first learn of this?

It is FAU's goodwill gesture to assist our global hospitality & tourism colleagues impacted by COVID-19. Big Grin   Too bad other universities do not do the same. Sad
