The local hospitality industry is looking to fill 450 open positions for back-of-house staff, and the Fayetteville Public Library (FPL) wants to help.

• Learning the basics: FPL is hosting a certification course for potential hospitality candidates in the area. The certified course is a 2-week program aimed at providing rapid and preferred placement for employees at local NWA restaurants.
• Open space: To be hosted at the FPL's new teaching kitchen, local chefs will train participants in basic knife-handling and kitchen safety over the course of the six class program.
