Popis: According to the International Council on Hotel Restaurant Institutional Education (CHRIE), the growth of hospitality and tourism programs offering two-year and four-year degrees is well over 1,400 institutions (Guide to College Programs in Hospitality, Tourism, & Culinary Arts, 2002). This paper will take the form of a working case study model which will go into detail of an actual operating satellite hospitality/tourism training program within the state of Maryland. Following an introduction to the satellite program, strategies in distance education will be discussed along with the future challenges facing such an endeavor. The paper will conclude with a challenge and focus to offer similar satellite/distance programs in other states within the U.S.
