Our team had the pleasure of visiting the Hospitality Training Action Centre 75 (HTA 75) last week to check out their new facility, and met the students of their Front of House program. Most students in the program are newcomers to Canada, and hearing their stories and answering their questions about the hospitality industry has been an amazing experience. As an education and training centre for the hospitality industry; we're proud to work closely with HTA 75 to meet Rexdale CBA employment targets at Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto. We look forward to our continued partnership with HTA 75.
