The program will consist of studies at Sprott-Shaw's Kelowna campus, followed by practicum studies in Vancouver and concluded with self-directed learning via the internet. Upon completion of the program, Jamaican students will receive industry certification recognized by the American Hotel and Lodging Association Education Institute (AHLA-EI), a non-profit organization with thousands of member hotels around the world. Graduates will possess practical industry knowledge and an AHLA-EI certification, which is recognized by most major hotel chains, thereby substantially increasing their employment prospects.
"It is a delight for the Government of Jamaica to partner with Sprott-Shaw Community College in providing Hospitality and Tourism training to our citizens," said Errol Miller, Chief Technical Director of the Ministry of Labour and Social Security in Jamaica. "While we have certainly had a long lasting relationship with Canada, this partnership reinforces this relationship and benefits everyone involved especially the students. The persons involved in this program will not only benefit from the training but also from their experience in Canada."
"Sprott-Shaw Community College is proud to partner with the Jamaican Government in this initiative." said Dean Duperron, President of Sprott-Shaw Community College. "As an international organization, Sprott-Shaw provides a unique credential and recognizes the world-wide value of training in the multi-billion dollar Hospitality Industry."
"We are excited to be working with the Jamaican government to offer our hospitality programs to students in the country," said Toby Chu, Vice Chairman and CEO of CIBT Education Group. "Our presence there is significant as Jamaica is a very popular destination for holiday travelers. The opportunity to train students in the country's hospitality industry will enhance their employability, improve their life-styles and increase their potential earnings."
