The Hospitality Information Technology Association (HITA)
is an international association of hospitality educators, hardware and software
vendors, information technology users, and consultants to the hospitality
industry. There are three levels of membership: student, individual, and
corporate. HITA provides members with workshops, seminars, newsletters, and an
annual technology conference presented by Cornell University's School of Hotel
Administration in Ithaca, New York.
HITA's objectives are to develop technology curricula for
hospitality educators, to help hospitality educational programs implement
technology curricula, to establish a network of members to share information, to
act as a forum to acquire skills and resolve common problems, and to encourage
undergraduate and graduate students to further their studies in information
technology through scholarships and sponsorships.
Each year, HITA and PKF Consulting conduct a survey to
determine the use of technology within the United States lodging industry. They
use the survey's results to provide information and resources to further train
individuals in the lodging industry to take advantage of technology especially
the Internet as a marketing and management tool.
