📷📷 Learning Beyond the Classroom: Educational Visit to Penang! 📷📷
Learning becomes even more meaningful when students get the opportunity to step outside the classroom and experience the industry firsthand!
Our students from the Diploma in Event Management, Bachelor of Tourism in Event Management, and Bachelor of Hospitality and Catering Management recently embarked on an exciting educational visit to Penang, combining adventure, nature, hospitality, and industry exposure into one unforgettable learning experience.
📷 Adventure & Teamwork through ATV Experience
The journey began with an exciting ATV adventure, where students stepped out of their comfort zones and challenged themselves in an outdoor environment. Beyond the thrill and excitement, the experience encouraged teamwork, communication, leadership, problem-solving, and risk awareness — skills that are highly valuable in the event, tourism, and hospitality industries.
📷 Connecting with Nature through Camping at The Habitat
Students then experienced camping at The Habitat Penang Hill, where learning continued in a completely different environment. Immersed in nature, they gained a deeper appreciation of sustainable tourism, environmental awareness, destination experiences, and outdoor event activities. The camping experience also strengthened their ability to adapt, collaborate, and work together as a team.
📷 Industry Learning at DoubleTree Resort Penang
The educational journey continued with an insightful industry talk and site visit at DoubleTree Resort Penang. Students had the opportunity to gain first-hand exposure to the operations of a hospitality establishment and understand how different departments work together to deliver memorable guest experiences.
Through the industry sharing and site visit, students gained valuable insights into hospitality operations, event planning, guest services, venue management, food and beverage operations, service quality, and the importance of professionalism in the industry.
