HOSTEUR™ is the only internationally distributed career and self-development magazine for future hospitality and tourism professionals. It aims to prepare the more than 60,000 students enrolled in hospitality and tourism education programs at International CHRIE member schools for careers in the industry. The objective of HOSTEUR™ is to ease student transition from undergraduate education to graduate- or study-abroad programs, professional life with restaurants and foodservice management, hotels and lodging; travel-related businesses; food & beverage suppliers; equipment manufacturers; trade and professional associations; and commodity groups. International CHRIE created the word HOSTEUR™ to describe future hospitality and tourism professionals. The first syllable, "HOST," resonates the common mission and heritage of hospitality--serving the guest. The second syllable, "-EUR," denotes an international identity which captures the essence of the hospitality industry. Published twice annually, HOSTEUR™ is used as a classroom and training resource by many educators and industry professionals who are anxious to integrate academic theory and pragmatic experience for the workforce of tomorrow.
