“So, so very sad that so many students were blindly caught in this HOT MESS … and SABA is still tricking people. What a disgrace these people are.” C

Ed: You are quite right, it is a very sad state of affairs. Hopefully, the court will decide in a way that will put an end to this travesty. In the meantime, the Alliance of Professional Butler Trainers launched yesterday, and the standards it is setting, will ensure that real educators can be identified for students who are looking for a place to learn the profession. All it takes is doing their own research and not being beguiled by the glitzy and incessant PR.

The Institute is dedicated to raising service standards by broadly disseminating the mindset and superior service expertise of that time-honored, quintessential service provider, the British Butler, updated with modern people skills, and adapted to the needs of modern employers and guests in staffed homes, luxury hotels, resorts, spas, retirement communities, jets, yachts & cruise ships around the world.
