Employers in the Isle of Man's hospitality and retail sectors are being encouraged to make the most of a new series of free training courses, on offer in the new year.
The Manx Welcome courses aim to improve customer service among Island businesses for both residents and vistors, and ensure people shop locally.
They are funded by government and offered at the Isle of Man College, and the only cost to employers is to pay their staff as normal while they attend.
Quality and services manager at the Department of Tourism Angela Byrne says the Manx Welcome scheme can be a springboard to an employee's future development:
Treasury minister 'hopes' businesses will pass on VAT reductions to customers
TT 'massive' for hospitality industry
Hopes summer VAT cuts will ease cost of living pressures for families and businesses
'The TT is our crown jewel' says caterer
