Taking students out for 5 star hotel property tours is fun and educative at the same time.  Such tours are a great insight for our students while they are taken around the property and each department and its functions are explained by the training managers for whom we have very high regards as they take out valuable time for their schedules to interact with our students.

Since ours is an Aviation and Hospitality course, we give equal impetus to the hospitality  training curriculum as well and have been able to build up strong  relationships with almost all the top hotel brands at Kolkata and other cities as well.  Therefore to take each of our training batches for such exposures is a responsibility that we take up and ensure that the trips are a great learning experience for each of them.

We recently went to The Westin Kolkata Rajarhat for one such tour and for some of the students, it was their first visit to a 5 star deluxe property.  Mr. Sanjay Aratla, the Training Manager of the property was very kind and took us around the beautiful property explaining our students the role and function of each area and department that they were shown. It was nice to see our students being able to relate to what they had learnt in their classrooms with what was being shown at The Westin. Right from the kitchens, to restaurants, bars, lobby, public areas, banquet halls, laundry and rooms, our students had a nice learning time and better understanding of these areas. There was a question and answer session at the end of the tour and Mr. Aratla clarified the doubts that the students had and in fact gave them a great perspective of working and careers in a 5 star hotel.

These trips also become beneficial when our students go for their internships to 5 star hotels which in turn leverages their candidature as aspiring Cabin Crew and Ground Service professionals apart from finding favours if the candidate chooses Hotels as his/her career to start with.

We leave you with some pictures of the trip to The Westin. Next, we have a trip to Taj Bengal coming up very soon. We will keep you posted about the same once our students have visited the iconic property.
