Good morning everyone. I am a student currently pursuing a degree in hotel management at IIHM Pune. I want to join the hospitality industry

Hi Abhinav,

If you want to become a Hotel Administrator, after completion of your current course a minimum of 2 years of work experience is highly advisable.

I would suggest you to opt for a CHA certification course. It is offered by American Hotel and Lodging Educational Institute, which provides credibility to hotel executives.

Pros: Highly recommended

Cons: Recertification is necessary after 5 years.

A Foodservice Management Professional (FMP) credential is another option.

These certification courses would fuel your dream of becoming a hotel administrator. You could opt for the following subjects and skills

Communication Skills (English and Foreign Language/s)

Business Law

Business Ethics

Human Resource Management

Event Management

Public Relations

Travel Management

Nutrition and Food Science

Entrepreneurial Skills

Knowledge of Basic Operations

It would be more helpful if you can provide with details of your Dual Specialization MBA, to help you out more.

Hope this answer is helpful. For further questions, feel free to ask.
