Most junior colleges in Florida offer a 2 year Associates Degree. I went to St. Pete JC and took Hotel/Restaurant Mgmt right out of high school about 44 years ago. Part of the program was to work in the industry for the experience and 2 hrs credit each semester. During my second year Disney World executives came and interviewed those of us interested in the startup of their hotels and food service. I had several jobs during school, everything from running an elevator (the old style with the cage door and push handle) to making steak subs on the boardwalk during the summer.
