AlaskaHost Program Background: AlaskaHost is a customer service training program that was designed to assist communities and businesses by training workers and setting standards of professionalism in the visitor industry.

The AlaskaHost Program originated in British Columbia where Tourism British Columbia developed a series of hospitality training programs known as "SuperHost". These programs are operated in Canada and in other countries by or under license with Tourism British Columbia. Tourism British Columbia has granted rights to distribute the SuperHost program to the State of Alaska, Department of Community and Economic Development, Division of Community and Business Development within Alaska. The SuperHost program has been customized for Alaska and is known as AlaskaHost within Alaska.
