About the Program
Hui! 'Ano'ai me ke aloha, pehea 'oukou? Interpret Hawai'i at Kapi'olani Community College offers a variety of non-credit and continuing education courses on Hawai'i's host culture. With the only State-of-Hawai'i certification in the history and culture of Hawai'i, we provide visitor-industry training modules that fuse Hawai'i's rich cultural history, values, and language into today's workplace.

Our courses and modules are essential and designed to meet the needs of any business or organization that believes in being "culturally responsible".

Fun and enjoyable community courses and excursions are also available to help those wanting to learn more about this place we call home.

Customized training and special group excursions are also available for a cost-efficient opportunity for your company or group to set the standard in doing business here in Hawai'i, or just planning an exiting excursion or outing.

This workshop concentrates on visitor activities in the natural environment as well as those who interface visitor and resident. Standards of professional Eco-tour guides have been established by the Hawaii Ecotourism Association and are included in the manual. Information and guidelines for ecologically sensitive activities are provided, both for those already established as Eco-tour operators and those anticipating such endeavors.
