Meeting

The participants will include the Hotel manager, project manager, IT staff manager, and trainer to discuss any issues that arose from the training class and any other issues throughout the process. The issues and any corrections made during the project process will be documented and prepared within the postmortem report. All aspects of the training class and process thereof will
