Background

            The High Country Hospitality workshop was developed through the use of materials from Oklahoma State University Cooperative Extension, University of Nebraska Cooperative Extension and Louisiana State University Cooperative Extension.

 

            Through the Tourism Rallies held in south central Colorado the issue of employee education was identified.  This workshop was started as a result of that issue being raised.
