Global Asset Solutions has released the latest version of its online training course with additional features including a new commercial module.
The course draws on the decades of experience gained by Global Asset Solutions as it grew to be the largest independent asset manager in EMEA and APAC, with assets under management worth over $20bn. The company’s continuing involvement in the sector means that the course remains up-to-date, providing real tangible examples, addressing current issues and trends.
Hotel asset management has moved into the mainstream as an essential aspect of a hotel’s operations, drawing on specialist knowledge to optimise a property. The programme ensures that graduates are able to make decisions critical to a property’s optimisation, based on market knowledge and in-depth experience. Alex Sogno, CEO, Global Asset Solutions
The additional segment of the course explores key financial tools used by hotel asset managers, as well as emphasising the importance of integrating revenue management, sales, and marketing. Using real-life case studies, the chapter highlights how strategic commercial decisions influence guest experience, profitability and team motivation.
The online course includes classes, testing and case studies, concluding in an assessment. The course certificate is awarded by Global Asset Solutions and the International Luxury Hotel Association.
This certificate is tailored towards hotel owners, bankers, investors, lenders, operators (e.g., regional VP or GMs), students and anyone involved in hotel real estate who wants to update their skills and learn about asset management. This course was initially built as an academic program, but since rewritten and improved to current business environment, with concrete professional experiences.
