CEO UPDATE
ON THE JOB TRAINING INDUSTRY EXPERTS
NEEDS COVERED ALL YOUR TRAINING HOSPITALITY
THA CEO STEVE OLD
Our industry experienced trainers come to you, co-ordinating on job training and assessment for your trainees and apprentices in the following qualifications:
RESURRECTION might be the theme of this year’s Dark Mofo event but it’s also the perfect description of our hospitality industry. The one thing I noticed at the Awards for Excellence was the positivity that is once again emerging from so many operators. Everyone has done it so tough in the past two years and I’m sure we are all sick of talking about Covid. The awards were a fantastic celebration of all the amazing businesses Tasmania has and it was great to see so many people with smiles on their faces and talking optimistically about what lies ahead. Congratulations to all the winners, it was great to see a mix of the well-established venues to recently opened establishments taste success and I’m confident we stand a really good chance to feature heavily at the national AHA awards in November.
In August, we will for the first time have a major presence at Agfest and I am extremely excited to be involved at what is a globally recognised event which attracts around 60,000 people every year. For four days from August 24-27, we will be showcasing ‘the best of Tasmanian hospitality’ and there will be a host of fun and entertaining activations for people to see each day. Keep an eye out on our social channels for more information on Agfest and what will be taking place in our shed as we draw closer to it! The other big project we have been working on is our 2030 vision for the industry, which we are hoping to be able to start releasing more information on soon. We have been consulting with all our partners right around the state and developing our vision of where we see the hospitality industry needs to be in 2030. We know that each region of Tasmania faces different problems, and it is why we have created this visionary document. If we are to maintain and grow hospitality in the next eight years, we need to start addressing these issues now so hospitality remains one of the best and vibrant sectors in the state. We will use this vision to continue talking to governments at all levels so they prioritise their funding assistance to ensure we are meeting the needs and challenges faced.

For us at the THA, the night was a major event and a chance for the staff to celebrate as well but we continue to gear up for what is going to be a big second half to 2022.
