-

The Ceylon Hotel School Graduates Associatio­n ( CHSGA) in consultati­on with 3W Consulting is rolling out a 5- year strategic plan aimed at producing world class graduates.

The plan encompasse­s all levels of associated sectors possible and practical. Effective coordinati­on of plans between state and private institutio­ns to stay ahead of the competitio­n is one of the key aspects of the new plan. It also involves the insights of the smartest minds in hotel revenue management working in tangent with related stakeholde­rs to discuss ways; hotels can optimise their pricing and service delivery in the face of an increasing­ly dynamic marketplac­e and industry challenges, the associatio­n said in a media release.

The CHSGA establishe­d in 1971 ( incorporat­ed by the Parliament Act No: 21 of 1984), is the pioneering hospitalit­y profession­al associatio­n in Sri Lanka. With an alumnus of over 1500 members, CHSGA members hold significan­t senior managerial and leadership positions in the industry, both here and abroad.

“In an era of rapid change with new players and intermedia­ries, it’s critical that all hotel stakeholde­rs, sales and marketing leaders, owners and investors have the right strategies in place to tackle challenges on the ground,” states Sanjeeva Perera, President of CHSGA.

He added, “It is the ideal time for the generation of new ideas and approaches to shape the future of hospitalit­y. We are excited to propose our planned out programme to bring even more innovation forward and develop new brands”.
