Student stories
What our students say
Real stories from graduates who built careers with IHTC.
IHTC changed my life completely. The practical training prepared me for real hotel work. I started as a commis chef and now I'm the head chef. The instructors were experienced and the job placement support was excellent!
Best decision of my life! I got job placement at Temple Tree Resort immediately after training. The skills I learned at IHTC are exactly what hotels need. Now I'm supervising a team and earning well.
After completing training at IHTC, I worked in Pokhara for 2 years, then got an opportunity in Dubai. The international-standard training made me competitive. Now I'm supporting my family and building my career abroad.
