7. Hospitality education: All of the 43 supervisors across both the groups answered<br />

whether they had received any formal hospitality education. Among the 32 supervisors<br />

in the lodging group, 26 of them did not receive any formal hospitality education. The<br />

results were similar in the dining group where 10 of the total 11 supervisors did not<br />

receive any formal hospitality education. Only one supervisor in the dining group<br />

reported that he had received hospitality education as part of certificate courses and<br />

four (4) supervisors in the lodging group have attended hospitality education during<br />

the diploma or graduate programmes (See Table 19).<br />
