Inver Hills CC’s new Casino Gaming program is aimed at preparing students for a career in the casino industry’s table games environment by providing direction from 10-time winner of the World Series of Poker, Johnny Chan. Through the use of interactive multimedia and instructional video e-mails, the training program teaches the methods, techniques and mannerisms of professional casino poker, blackjack and baccarat dealers.
The program’s courses, Casino Poker Dealer, Casino Blackjack Dealer and Casino Baccarat Dealer, cover basic fundamentals such as shuffling, handling cheques, limits and betting procedures in today’s most popular card games. Available online, each course is self-paced and accessible anywhere with a computer and Internet connection. Upon successful completion, students will receive job placement and support from the advisors at the Johnny Chan Academy including the opportunity to record a streaming video audition to showcase skills to potential employers. "We are proud to be in partnership with Inver Hills Community College to offer the Casino Gaming program. Now, students can learn the skills necessary to be successful in their dream job," said Stephen Gatlin, founder of Fort Worth-based Gatlin Education Services. "With the popularity and growth of casinos in recent years, students in the program will be training for some of the most glamorous and well-paying careers available."
