School of Hospitality & Tourism Studies
The tourism industry continues to play an important role in Fiji’s economic development, contributing significantly to income and employment generation both directly and indirectly. The projected growth in Fiji’s hospitality and tourism industry has created many career opportunities in this service sector. Fiji is also blessed in its location as the hub of the Pacific region, and therefore invests a great deal towards the promotion of tourism. The industry has now reached a point where the nature and quality of its human resources play a critical role in its success.
The quality of service in all areas of the industry has a direct impact on the earning power of the industry and to employees, and in turn assures continuous increase in tourist arrival figures. The School offers TVET Stream programmes of study leading to a Trade Diploma in Hotel Management, and also offers hands on training relating to these areas. Graduates are educated and trained to take up positions in all areas of the tourism industry.
The on-the-job training package arranged with hotels and other hospitality operators prepares students in advance for real life work situations in the industry. Prospective students are encouraged to research the nature and scope of various jobs associated with their employment in the hospitality and tourism industry.
We wish you all the best in your new found venture and career in the hospitality and tourism industry.
