"IHESA changed my outlook on life. Passion and commitment were the key ingredients during the year, where I made many friends. The key advantage was that it was one year instead of three. At the age of 19 I was in Guest Services at the Mount Nelson!"

"The courses are really perfect if you want to get into industry quickly. They give you knowledge and experience at the same time. I wouldn't do any other course looking back; I will still always choose IHESA. The employment I was referred to by IHESA was incredible and sent me on my way to local and international employment at the highest level. With the amount of hype surrounding education in South Africa today many young adults and their parents are concerned about their future and their chances of finding meaningful employment. To make an informed choice of the directions they wish to steer their lives and their careers the Institute for Hospitality Education offers immediate success in education, practical experience and mobility due to the City & Guilds International qualifications".

"My experience at IHESA was very valuable to my career. The lectures are professional and I especially loved the apprenticeship programme that begins when you start to study. Experience in the industry is critical. Passion is truly what runs our industry and the IHESA staff clearly show the meaning of that word! I am currently in North Carolina in the USA, where I have been since graduating in November 2007. I truly love my job and am working in a professional pastry department."
