One of the frontrunners for a downstate New York casino license is potentially grooming some future employees.

Resorts World New York City, in partnership with York College, wrapped up its latest Intro to Gaming Operations course. The free, six-week program aims to educate current and future employees in the gaming industry on the “nuanced workings of a casino,” according to a press release, all to “grow their careers and succeed within the industry.”

As Robert DeSalvio, president of Resorts World ownership group Genting Americas East, put it: The course helps “open career pathways for hard-working New Yorkers.”

“Intro to Gaming Operations provides a holistic picture of an industry that requires professionals across the spectrum. This course has prepared participants with the best understanding of how those professionals work together, help each other, and ensure their entire community succeeds.”
