Nonprofit Organization Management - Franschhoek, Western Cape, South Africa
Franschhoek, known as the Wine and Food Capital of the Western Cape, boasts a quaint village where a host of award winning restaurants, hotels, guesthouses, local shops, the Franschhoek monument and museum, wineries and arts and crafts are situated.However, among all this beauty is a dire need for trained and skilled professionals within the hospitality industry. There isn't an affordable institution within this area to provide disadvantaged students/staff the right to a well-recognized education and basic training and this is where the Franschhoek Hospitality Academy &Learning Centre comes in.We have developed the Change4Twenty program which is how we will pilot this initiative. 20 Students, 20 lives to change within a year and our journey begins in Jan 2018 at the Groendal Community and Sports Centre.The training programme for 20 students from disadvantaged backgrounds, will extend over a 12 month period. For eight months, mornings will comprise classroom and practical training and the afternoons will be allocated to on line, digital training. A four month internship will then follow to complete the training.Students will receive training in a wide range of areas including culinary, customer service, front of house, wine, tourism, etc. .
