What Other AAHOA Members Say About the Program
“The CHIA is critical for hoteliers or those intersecting with hotel strategy to have in their repertoire. In a world where analytics is becoming so critically important, [CHIA] is a must-do rather than a ‘I have to make time to do that’ [certificate]. Data-driven decisions are at the core of innovation. I had been reading and using the STR reports for over a few decades. I had even taught data analytics within Purdue University. There are things that the CHIA covers that I never took the time to understand in the way I should have. It was also fulfilling to be in the review to walk through the tools that they supply, so you are able to bring them back to your team. Having had this course and certification, I know I bring a deeper value to the organizations that I serve.”
