On January 18th, faculty and students of the International Training Faculty, specializing in Hotel Management (BTEC), had a very beneficial and interesting 3-day, 2-night field trip to Da Lat, the city of a thousand flowers. The trip not only provided students with the opportunity to experience and learn firsthand at 4-star and 5-star hotels in Da Lat, but also served as a chance for students to strengthen their bonds and create many memorable student memories.
The first destination on the internship trip was the River Prince DaLat Hotel, a long-established and luxurious hotel in Da Lat with nearly 10 years of operation. Upon arriving at the hotel, the Vietnamese-American students received an extremely warm and friendly welcome from the staff, who immediately guided them through the check-in process, explained the most common real-life situations that front desk staff often encounter, and revealed some essential tips for handling these situations.
At River Prince DaLat, students also have the opportunity to learn more about the diverse roles and responsibilities of various positions in the hotel environment, participating in practical sessions on restaurant and housekeeping services, etc., right at the hotel under the guidance of experienced hotel staff. Moreover, they also get to share stories about the profession, so that each student will have a more comprehensive view of the field they are studying, making it easier for them to choose suitable career paths in the future.
Older brother Linh Vo – Housekeeping Manager River Prince DaLat, a senior figure with many years of experience in the Housekeeping field, shared many real-life stories and useful lessons with APC students to help them better understand the profession. He shared: ‘"The students from Viet My College are dynamic and confident. They came to the hotel with the mindset of learning and understanding, not simply visiting and listening. They asked many career-related questions, showing that they had prepared and researched the profession thoroughly."’
In the next leg of their journey, the students from Viet My College visited a hotel. Swiss-Belresort Tuyen Lam – one of the most modern hotels with the best views in Da Lat. Students can experience many interesting activities, admire the scenery considered the 'specialties' of Da Lat, and also get to enjoy the company of our staff.
