The Individual CHBA is a self-paced online certification and training in business acumen for hospitality. It includes e-learning and a hotel simulation in which you “manage” a virtual hotel and make decisions affecting its profitability, competing against a computer. There are no prerequisites and no application – you can register and pay online to begin. The Group CHBA requires at least 7 people to register and go through it together. It is not open enrollment – usually a company puts a group of employees through the certification. It is a 5-week commitment with approximately 4 hours of homework per week and mandatory weekly conferences with an instructor. The e-learning is the same as the Individual CHBA, and in the hotel simulation you compete against your colleagues instead of the computer.
