EAT'N PARK HOSPITALITY GROUP MAKES TRAINING MAGAZINE'S
"TOP 125" LIST

OREFIELD, PA, February 22, 2008—Eat’n Park Hospitality Group, one of the top providers in on-site and restaurant dining, was recently chosen to Training Magazine’s “Top 125” list of outstanding international training organizations. 

Eat’n Park Hospitality Group’s onsite brands, Cura Hospitality and Parkhurst Dining Services, ranked 11th among all food and hospitality companies.  According to Mitch Possinger, President, Onsite Brands, Eat’n Park Hospitality Group, “Cura’s Culinary, Service and HR Colleges, the hallmark of our company’s training; and Parkhurst’s exceptional culinary and guest services training programs, continue to help us recruit and retain talented individuals who contribute to high client and guest satisfaction – significantly higher than the hospitality industry average.”

For the seventh year in a row, Training tackled the task of ranking the top companies of employer-sponsored workforce training and development.  Each “Top 125” company was measured on quantitative (75 percent to total score) and qualitative (25 percent to total score) data.  Under the guidance of Training Magazine, an outside research and statistical data company scored companies on the data supplied by applicants.

Factors that influenced the rankings include: training tied to business; number of trainers; employee turnover and retention; leadership development; tuition assistance; corporate university; certification; dollars spent on training; percentage of payroll; and, much, much more.
