Flow Hospitality Training Launch Version 2

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) October 21, 2010 -- Flow Hospitality Training Ltd have launched Version 2 of their innovative package of online hospitality training products which have taken the hospitality industry by storm over the last 12 months.

The Flow online training modules offer a flexible, cost effective approach to online hospitality training that inspires learners to overcomes the traditional problems associated with online hospitality training in this industry. Employees can learn at a time, place and pace to suit them and the business.

The main objective behind this major upgrade of Flow Hospitality Training, only 12 months after launch, was to deliver the modules fully online, allowing learners to access them from any computer, with no software downloads.

Flow hospitality training also took this opportunity to introduce dynamic new graphics and interactions, which have greatly enhanced the look and feel of the online training modules, making them even easier to navigate around, and using engaging and fun ways to consolidate the key learning points.

4 of the hospitality training modules, The Bartender, The Waiter, Wine and Cocktails, have been significantly developed with a wealth of additional content, meticulously created by hospitality industry training experts.

The Food Safety module has been developed in line with Level 2 Food Safety training which is required for all food handlers. The food hygiene training and food safety module applies to both kitchen and front of house staff, allowing Flow Hospitality Training to offer a one stop solution to training needs for hospitality employers.

Flow Hospitality Training Licensing and Social Responsibility module has been adapted in line with the Licensing Act (2003) to create training specifically for bar and waiting staff in England and Wales, allowing Flow to expand further south of the border. This is a new and exciting chapter for Flow, who are already established as one of the leading online hospitality training providers in Scotland. Flow's Licensing and Social Responsibility training for staff in Scotland has been in hot demand, due predominantly to the ease with which it satisfies the legal requirement for all staff to receive 2 hours training prior to serving alcohol.

One of the biggest commercial benefits of Version 2 is the ability to customise the Flow hospitality training modules to a company’s requirements by adding logos and menus to create a totally bespoke training package, a feature that has been snapped up by a number of leading companies. The content managed set up also enables Flow to adapt and create training modules to accommodate customers specific training needs.

Karen Calvert, Flow Operations Director commented ‘We are delighted at the positive response, from both new and existing customers to the latest version of our online training packages. The original modules were designed eighteen months ago, and in this time software capabilities have moved forward dramatically. We were keen to deliver a product that is as innovative as possible, and are finding in particular that the interactive games are providing learners with a fun way to consolidate their wealth of learning.’
