Industry and education depend on each other! Master a skill in a certain field! Succeed in a special field of study!

On November 9, the Sheraton Grand Macao Hotel and The St. Regis Macao Development Program Recognition Ceremony was held at Sheraton Macao Cotai Central. Vice Rector Kong Fanqing and teachers of CityU were invited to attend the ceremony. A total of 22 students were promoted, 3 of whom were promoted for the second time as supervisors.

CityU has consistently advocated the "five-in-one" learning model, focusing on the cultivation of practical talents for Macao and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and has carried out extensive cooperation with Sheraton Grand Macao Hotel and The St. Regis Macao that also attach great importance to the "localization of talents".

The "Sheraton Grand Macao Hotel and The St. Regis Macao Development Program" jointly organized by the Faculty of International Tourism and Management of CityU and the two hotels combines theoretical knowledge and practices, and arranges students to master working skills in different departments of hotels to accumulate experience. In addition to acquiring theoretical knowledge, academic degrees and extensive experience in the service industry, students will also have better employment, development and promotion opportunities to take on junior to intermediate management positions more quickly.

Since the program was launched in 2013, nearly 250 students have been admitted. This year, a total of 28 students from CityU completed the program. In addition, 22 current or graduating students were promoted.
