On the other hand, this product will serve as a mechanism for labour market integration to our students,” said Ricardo Fernández de la Puente Armas, Deputy Minister of Tourism for Canary Islands.

Cristina Hernández, Director of Sales - Spain & Portugal, eRevMax, added, “We are very pleased to partner with HECANSA – this is an important step in our efforts to educate future hoteliers and revenue managers through new technology concepts and tools. Hotel online distribution continues to evolve and with new variety of channels emerging everyday – students need to be future-ready.

The students of HECANSA Hotel Management Program will receive training on how to use the RateTiger software as well as the art of maximizing online revenue by accredited professionals from eRevMax.
