Dorsett Hospitality International has recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding with INTI International College Subang (IICS) as part of its on-going initiative to cultivate and to provide quality mentoring for youth who aspire to make hospitality a life-long rewarding career.
Through this collaboration, Dorsett Hospitality International will share with IICS its Training and Standard Operating Procedures manuals in the areas of Front Office and Housekeeping which apart from enhancing the learning experience for IICS’ hospitality students, will also facilitate the training needs of these students and will offer priority internship attachments within its portfolio of hotels.
To ensure that the students receive ‘real-time’ trainings to enhance their practical skills, Dorsett Hospitality International also assisted in the setting up of two simulation areas, one guest room and one reception counter skills. This collaboration will also provide young hoteliers with career opportunities within the group upon completion of their studies. Dorsett International’s associates will also benefit from this collaboration, in particular those from the Rooms Division as they too will be given opportunities for continuous learning with IICS.
“We are truly excited to partner with IICS, and combine our expertise in the hospitality management arena with their long tradition of providing top quality education, and look forward to helping these young hoteliers to carve their own niche in this dynamic industry,” said Datin Jasmine Abdullah Heng, Vice Chairman of Dorsett Hospitality International.
“Recognising the demand for qualified staff and the need to create a new generation of hoteliers well-prepared to tackle the challenges of this global industry, the group has always been very participative and supportive in various forms of hospitality related programmes. The group continues to work with students at conferences, forums, symposia, provide internship opportunities and actively pursue post graduate recruitments,” added Kate Ho, Director of Human Capital Development who is based at the Dorsett Hospitality International’s corporate office in Hong Kong.
Dorsett Hospitality International is one of Asia’s fastest growing hotel groups with a growing portfolio of hotels in key cities around the Asia region and the UK. Headquartered in Hong Kong, Dorsett Hospitality International currently operates 18 hotels with seven more scheduled to open within the next 24 months in China, Hong Kong, Malaysia and United Kingdom, bringing the total room count to more than 8,000. The group’s proven record of success has been driven by its unique operating model and company vision – to create Asian hospitality that inspires and excites guests while continuing to offer superb service.
