Some notes and guidelines for filling out the Questionnaire:

1) Conducting workshops in Arabic or English is always a point of discussion. Some are convinced that all working in the hospitality sector should speak English and others think it is only necessary for staff serving the guests. Therefore, with each main topic we ask you to fill out the preferred teaching language.

2) If your establishment has sufficient in-house training or access to other resources to provide the training then those topics would not be a priority for the Association to develop. So mark only the workshops you would wish to see developed to assist you in training your staff.

Thank you for your highly valued input to enhance our services in Egypt.
