RateGain Travel Technologies Ltd announced the launch of RG Varsity, a digital marketing certification programme targeting hotels’ commercial and marketing teams, on April 13, 2026.
The programme is designed to address what RateGain describes as a growing skills gap in hotel marketing — specifically the inability of hotel teams to translate data and AI-driven tools into measurable revenue outcomes. According to the company’s own State of Distribution 2025 report, nearly 70 per cent of hotels say they struggle to understand why their return on ad spend underperforms.
RG Varsity covers three curriculum areas: digital marketing fundamentals in AI-driven environments, performance and return on ad spend optimisation, and building a digital revenue strategy aligned with broader commercial goals. The programme is now available globally at varsity.rategain.com.
Bhanu Chopra, Founder and Managing Director of RateGain, said the industry faces a clarity gap, not just a technology gap, with hotel teams needing support in consistently acquiring the right customer despite having access to more data and tools than ever before.
As part of the launch, RateGain recognised a founding cohort of three certified practitioners from SALA Hospitality Group and DLF Hospitality.
