MUSCAT: Muscat Hospitality Academy (MHA), launched by Heart of Hospitality, opens its first Vocational Education and Training/VET by EHL licenced training institute in Oman. MHA, in partnership with EHL Group, Switzerland, sets the standards in excellence for vocational education and training in hospitality, offering the next generation an exciting opportunity to build their career in the hospitality industry, both within the Sultanate of Oman and globally. The academy will initially focus on various level programmes in four key specialisations — culinary, service, rooms and hotel administration. The programmes are designed to cover almost 80 per cent of the job skill demand of the industry. All curriculum and course materials are developed in Switzerland by the EHL Group and delivered by VET by EHL approved industry experts.
“We are very proud of the fact that MHA has already been very well received by the hospitality sector in the Sultanate of Oman, with commitment from many 4 to 5-Star brands, which includes more than 370 employment opportunities for Omani nationals upon successful completion of our VET by EHL programmes. We are presenting a fantastic opportunity for Omanis who will receive unique world-class vocational educational training by hospitality industry experts, incorporating rigorous practical Internships to ensure that they are equipped to be ready for the job market from Day 1 of graduation “explained Xia Cai, Managing Partner for Heart of Hospitality.
“On behalf of EHL Group, it is my pleasure to welcome Muscat Hospitality Academy to our distinguished and select global network of hospitality institutions delivering the VET by EHL programmes. The hospitality industry has been evolving at a very rapid pace and so is the student population, hospitality educational institutions therefore must remain several paces ahead of the needs and the motivations of both the industry and the students. The high impact industry-led VET by EHL programs coupled with the talented set of trainers at MHA and its world-class infrastructure are well positioned to significantly reshape the hospitality skill development and professional education landscape not only in the Sultanate of Oman but across the wider region”, added Aman Aditya Sachdev, Director and Regional Head (Middle East, South Asia & Myanmar), EHL Advisory Services.
“Now that we have been able to re-open our unique resort again, we are honoured to be working with Muscat Hospitality Academy (MHA), to provide the highest standards in service excellence to our Guests and to help create opportunities for the youth of Oman,” explained Andrew Spearman, General Manager for Six Senses Zighy Bay.
In today’s fast-paced world, it has become a necessity to have the soft skills qualities which employers look for – active listening, proactive team building, delegating, creative problem-solving. Venturing in the hospitality sector can offer endless professional as well as personal opportunities. The education will equip you to have the appropriate life skills, such as clear active listening, emotional intelligence, critical thinking, leadership, and empathy that are needed for any future business endeavor.
