April is Hospitality Month
This year’s Hospitality Month theme is “Elevate Bermuda Together.”
The success of Bermuda’s future in hospitality and tourism is a community effort. Whether you are working in the industry and providing unparalleled customer service, or stopping to help someone looking a little lost, every interaction matters.
Elevating Bermuda Together aims to promote the importance of Bermuda’s Hospitality Industry within the community while celebrating individuals and organisations who represent the best of the hospitality and tourism industry. In addition, the BTA will highlight careers in tourism and hospitality to students to inspire them to want to work in the industry, while introducing and promoting the National Tourism Plan to the wider community.
To get involved in Bermuda's tourism industry, there are various ways you can participate, including:
- Check out our BTA Career Guide – the first of its kind dedicated to hospitality and tourism. Launching mid-April.
- Volunteer with organisations that support tourism in Bermuda, such as the Keep Bermuda Beautiful (KBB), can be an excellent way to assist in tourism.
- Take a free or subsidised training course on BTA+, our new online training platform.
- Attend industry events and network with professionals in the hospitality industry to make connections and learn about potential opportunities.
- Support local businesses by patronising local restaurants, shops, and other tourism-related businesses.
