Intern/Trainee program

What is the Internship Programme?

 

The Internship program is the perfect program for students who have completed tertiary studies in hospitality areas but lack the formal work experience in their field. Students will acquire international standard of professionalism and strong, intercultural, interpersonal skills from this exciting program. The Internship program lasts for 12-month to 18-months, during which, applicants gain invaluable experience in Hospitality areas such as Food and Beverage Preparation, Hotel Management, Tourism Management and other related areas. The Internship program gives full subsidy for accommodation while providing you with an attractive compensation deal!


There are two categories of this program:-  


Trainee- This applies to you if your degree/Associate degree from a university or a post-secondary academic institution was awarded more than 12 months prior to your start date plus 1-year work experience in the field outside of the USA or if you have no degree in the field of availability but have at least 5 years of experience in the field outside of the USA.  

Upon completion of their training, participants are expected to return to their home countries to utilize their newly learned skills and knowledge to advance their careers and share their experiences with their communities.  


Intern- This applies to you if your degree/Associate degree from a university was awarded within 12 months prior to the start date. No experience within the field of interest would be required.  

Upon completion of their exchange programs, participants are expected to return to their home countries. This program bridges the gap between formal education and practical work experience.
