Unions and Associations
There are no unions for hotel/motel managers, but those in this field can join professional organizations, such as the American Hotel and Lodging Association. The American Hotel and Lodging Educational Institute offers certification and continuing education opportunities.
Other useful organizations include the Association of Lodging Professionals (https://www.alplodging.org), Hotel Association of Canada (http://hotelassociation.ca), International Hotel & Restaurant Association (https://www.ih-ra.org), and the Society for Hospitality and Foodservice Management (https://shfm-online.org).
