On-the-Job Training
The state Department of Labor has joined with the Atlantic City Casino Consortium to fund specialized training for 2,700 casino employees. The $1.1 million grant will pay for on-the-job classes in the culinary arts, administration and management, customer service and computer technology, among other programs.
The Atlantic City Casino Consortium includes Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa, Trump Entertainment, Harrah’s Entertainment and Tropicana Casino Resort.
Meanwhile, a one-day seminar for gaming professionals will be offered by the Casino Career Institute on Thursday, October 16 at Atlantic Cape Community College.
“Controlling Casino Operations,” led by CPA Michael Wozniak, will help employees understand the system of checks and balances that ensure reliable financial accounting and protect assets in the casino environment.
Topics include the regulatory process, revenue cycles for table games and slot machines, cashiering operations and organizational controls.
The seminar will be held at the Charles D. Worthington Atlantic City Campus. The fee is $295 per person. Participants can earn eight Continuing Professional Education credits under the accounting and auditing categories of the New Jersey Board of Accountancy. To register, call 609-343-4814.
