Food & Beverage Managers: Introducing ‘Master It!’ Customizable Computer Training Modules for Servers & Bartenders

Washington, DC, September 09, 2008 --(PR.com)-- IMS, a leader in computer-based training for the beverage, food and hospitality industries, announced today the release of its new ‘Master It!’ series of customizable server and bartender training modules. Simple to use and easy to manage, these modules were created with flexibility to convert any bar or restaurant wine list, food menu, drink list or spirits list into a computer-based review tool to support live staff training.

Each module is set up to ask the server or bartender a guided list of questions about wines, drinks or food items and then asks the user to identify key ingredients, preparations or taste profiles. The user reviews each question, clicks ‘submit’ and then receives immediate feedback on their choice - including an explanation for incorrect answers.

“We’ve learned that there is no substitute for live tastings and trainings. But, when it comes to review and reinforcement, there’s also no substitute for simple computer exercises that can be done either pre-shift or post-shift. It’s a powerful combination that allows professional staff to train and then lets the computer do the follow-up and quality control,” said David Cichanowicz, Principal at IMS. “Moreover,” he continued, “the professional staff trainer can use the computer scoring to quickly identify those needing more live training or those ready to graduate to become trainers based on perfect reviews on a daily basis - a true win-win.”

For additional information and personalized pricing, please call 202-587-5664 and speak with David Cichanowicz, and be sure to visit them online at www.innovativemarketingllc.com in the 'Quality Control' section of our site to preview a live sample 'Master It!' exercise.
