IGI Introduction to Casino Management
Poker face puns. Puzo is, of course, right on the money about casino gaming. Without the 'edge,' casinos would not exist. With this edge, and because of a famous mathematical result called the law of large numbers, a casino is guaranteed to win in the long run.
This course is designed to identify, contrast, and compare basic casino department management procedures. Students will examine and discuss the relationship between the casino department and other departments in a hotel/casino environment. Course content will focus on game selection, controls, layouts, gaming development and customer service; the casino industry's future outlook and career opportunities will also be explored. At the conclusion of the course, students will be able to implement and apply the basic procedures of managing a casino within a resort setting. This will be facilitated through discussions, assignments, videotape, a Mid-term Exam, a Final Exam, a Current Events Report and a Principles of Casino Management Application Report. Please note that the Leo Lewis and David Ross video tapes, even though somewhat outdated, provide you with actual industry executive exposure, terminology, and decision making techniques.
Course Procedures
The Casino Management Program trains students for entry-level, supervisory, and managerial positions in the gaming industry, including positions such as casino dealer, floor supervisor, pit manager, surveillance investigator, cage cashier and casino host. For students currently employed in the gaming industry, this program will aid in career advancement, professional growth and career mobility. Certificate programs are comprehensive, career oriented courses of study not leading to academic degrees. They are offered via classroom, online, and hybrid formats, and provide entry level or advanced skill sets valued by employers in a variety of career areas.
The course will follow an instructor presentation/discussion format. Required/suggested readings and lecture material will be covered, however, the instructor will encourage open discussion by all class members for the benefit of everyone. This will be facilitated with Online Education video tapes (streamed into the higherL LMS), higherL LMS discussion questions, higherL LMS assignments, higherL LMS mail, course content homepage for the syllabus, learning modules, higherL LMS announcements provided weekly by the instructor, and My Grades in My Tools for viewing your Course Record.
This instructor's primary concern is to provide the best possible learning environment. In the industry I always keep in mind a quote by Autry (1991), 'I always tell my supervisors, 'Those workers want to know how much you care before they care how much you know.' I sincerely care about each student learning and working at his/her potential. In turn, I will be providing each learning module with the best information available on the subject.
1. Read required/suggested book chapters and references before the class learning module discussions and assignments. Also, it is strongly suggested that you print-out the PowerPoint slides and PDF content information from higherL LMS. Only important highlight material will be covered in the instructor presentations.
2. Read weekly announcements, messages, and course mail (updated early each week).
3. Keep in touch with the instructor through the higherL LMS course mail.
4. Thoughtful, constructive, and active participation in class discussions and assignments is expected. This will be facilitated by higherL LMS Discussion Questions and higherL LMS Assignment Questions (DUE BY MIDNIGHT EACH SUNDAY AND RESPONDED TO EACH MONDAY).
5. The exams will be objective in format and be administered on higherL LMS. They will be closed books/notes and must be proctored. The Mid-term Exam will last one hour and 15 minutes. The Final Exam will last two hours. Students out of the Las Vegas area are responsible for securing a proctor and following the Online Education policy forms for that purpose (more details will be given prior to the exams). THERE WILL BE NO EXCEPTIONS TO THIS POLICY.
6. You must have Microsoft Word or Microsoft Vista Word to operate this higherL LMS course.
