“I would highly recommend UPO’s Hospitality program. I learned about every position in a hotel and it definitely helped in my interviews. This program really is six weeks to a career! I would love to stay in hospitality, it has great benefits, great pay, and room to grow.”
LaQuita was referred to our Hospitality training program through a friend who had recently completed the program. Over the years, she had taken dead-end jobs with no career advancement. She always enjoyed meeting and interacting with people. And, she was intrigued by the hospitality industry because her friend had recently secured employment with a large hotel chain and shared stories about her new career. LaQuita desired the same opportunity.
LaQuita is a 2015 graduate of our Hospitality training program and gainfully employed with one of DC’s most luxurious hotels, the Marriott Marquis at the Convention Center. She’s excited about her future and has her eye on a management position! She is UPO!
