Professional Training

The Ambassadors Plus training philosophy begins with hiring the right personnel. Once the most qualified candidates officially join our team, they must complete comprehensive training courses to prepare them for the positions for which they were hired.

Ambassadors Plus distinguishes itself from many of our competitors simply through our origin as a hospitality- and service-based company. Our commitment to hiring the right people, ensuring they are medically certified where necessary, and extensive training for our associates truly set us apart.

• Hand washing, sanitation, infection control and bloodborne pathogens practices (training materials stay current with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines).
