Rivers Casino & Resort Schenectady to hold free dealer course in January
Those who complete the six-week class will be offered casino employment.
Rivers Casino & Resort Schenectady will hold a free dealing academy on January 2, 2023. The New York destination currently has 20 openings for table game dealers.
The six-week course is valued at $5,000. Depending on enrollment, Rivers Casino said it might open a second class time. The current schedule will run from 11AM to 3PM Monday through Friday for six weeks.
Potential students must be 21 or older and can apply through the casino’s website. Rivers Casino noted that those who are interested do not need to have any previous dealer experience.
The casino said in a statement: “The Rivers Casino Dealer Academy teaches students a range of popular games beginning with Blackjack and other novelty table games.
“The program welcomes fun, energetic, and reliable participants of all levels – from beginners with no knowledge at all of table games to those with more experience.”
Once training is completed and graduates obtain a New York State gaming license, the casino will offer positions for both part-time and full-time dealers. Employees will have access to wages and tips, as well as medical, dental and vision insurance access and 401(k) options.
Rivers Casino & Resort Schenectady opened in 2017 and is currently home to a luxury sportsbook lounge, 1,050 slots, 66 live table games and a 16-table poker room. The destination also has five restaurants, including Dukes Chophouse, Flipt, Johnny’s To-Go and Mian.
The casino resort is owned and operated by Rush Street Gaming, along with its affiliates. Rush Street Gaming also runs casinos in Mississippi, Illinois and New York. Its Fallsview Casino Resort in Ontario, Canada, opened in 2004.
Construction plans for its newest casino in Portsmouth, Virginia, are currently underway.
