Has anyone had a chance to use their CAPM/PMP in the hospitality industry? I'd like to hear about your experience.

I have relatives that work in the hospitality industry - cruises - and although they are occupied on day-to-day activities, they allocate some time to work in projects. One thing I noticed is that they misuse the word project. Anything that is not operational work it is automatically called project.

They do not hold a certification in project management. I am quite certain that they could use one - not because of the certification itself, but because of all things learned during the journey to get there.

What does mean to use PMP? I have the opportunity to work like program/project manager and to teach project manager to several companies in that domain.

I know a few event managers that hold the CAPM, they found the value of the learning to improve their organizational skills

Destination Management is a very trendy topic in the travel industry. The transformation of a destination into a competitive one by changing the touristic product and the tourism development model is a very demanding and exciting project. I attended recently an MBA in Travel Management.

I organised a few photography tours as a side hustle. I found some of the knowledge that I gained from the PMBOK to be very useful.

I think PM knowledge is useful whenever we provide a tailor made product, service or result to our customers. Particularly in hospitality industry, I think user experience design knowledge can be extremely helpful.
