Why CHIA Recertification?

The CHIA Recertification training has two main goals. The first goal is to review the original content that you covered to be sure that you remember the original analytical concepts and math fundamentals. The second goal is to cover the STR data and reports and how they are used to analyze performance, especially the content that has been added to the CHIA in recent years and months, most importantly content related to the functionality of the CoStar product.

The CoStar product is a state-of-the-art online tool which allows users to dynamically access the world’s largest volume of hotel data. STR customers around the globe have recently migrated (or will be very soon) to the new product and are currently using CoStar to analyze property and industry data. The CHIA Recertification training will provide a comprehensive overview to the incredible power of this exciting new tool. Participants will learn CoStar functionality better than any of their fellow staff persons. They will definitely be positioned to be the “CoStar experts” in their companies.

Professors will be able to teach their students the new CoStar functionality. Their students will have the significant advantage of learning the new product better that the staff of the companies for which they work. The students will be positioned to be the “CoStar experts” for their new employers.

The Recertification training consists of 200+ slide PowerPoint with three chapters:

  1. Review of Hotel Industry Analytical Foundations and Math Fundamentals
