Dusit’s new Manila college grooms next generation of hospitality talent

23 Jul 2018  2049 | World Travel News

In a sea of more than 1,000 schools offering hospitality courses in metro Manila, Dusit Hospitality Management College (DHMC) stands out as an institution that offers hotel courses designed for supervisory and management levels.

The graduates will also have the potential to continue learning and progressing into a senior management position in five to seven years, said Lars Eltvik, managing director of the school. Six years ago, Eltvik was also at the helm of Dusit’s first tourism college in Bangkok.

Dusit’s soon-to-open hospitality college in the Philippines dares to be different

DHMC will be a fully-integrated hotel school with “high-tech, high-touch balance”, occupying the first nine floors of Dusit D2 – The Fort Hotel and Serviced Residences. While the school starts operations next month, the hotel – which features 135 Scandinavian-designed rooms and 129 serviced residences of 40m2 to 80m2 – will soft open in January 2019.

Eltvik, who will also manage the hotel – one of the eight that Dusit International has signed in the Philippines – said that to guarantee its “relevance”, DHMC will try “to fill the gap between what the industry needs and what the schools are producing” as “the academe is slow but the industry is moving fast”.
