The RP Group’s Post

We would like to inform you that the article penned by me on the topic *The role of experiential learning in hospitality education* featured at *ET Hospitality*. *Please find the link below*- https://lnkd.in/gY3i5qcs Regards

If you're planning on attending Hospitality Tech Expo in October, then this talk will be one to watch. Engaging teams and self learning are 2 subjects my clients often ask about, so this talk should be a great listen. https://lnkd.in/e9P8Scwd #ukhospitality #learninganddevelopment #engagement

Hotel leaders are ready to face both the trends and troubles that come their way in 2024, and to combat them, they're considering apprenticeship programs to address labor, AI to streamline operations and storytelling to increase personalization.

Hope you're enjoying a relaxing weekend. While I can't promise to make you a pizza if you attend one of our seminars, I can promise you a CE/CPD seminar that will transform your learning experience. Our boutique-style, interactive, intimate lectures are held in luxurious and unique European locations. Imagine a holiday where you can enrich your knowledge while enjoying quality time with your loved ones. Our seminars offer half-day lectures, leaving ample leisure time to explore the culture, history, and breathtaking landscapes of these picturesque locations.

Carolyn Floyd and Brittaney Baker, MSW will be presenting at the SEE annual conference on organizational models to foster access and excellence in experiential education. The presentation, entitled “Immersion Vanderbilt: A Comprehensive Model for Experiential Learning in Higher Education,” is timely as institutions grapple with how best to scale high-impact practices. #experientiallearning #highereducation #highimpact

Prospective students: start your first step to PhD by Learning about our PhD program! 

The first month back at school – time flies! And so many things have happened in the meanwhile at Hotel Management School NHL Stenden. #Studystartweek was organised by our students who dedicated their time to the Host Programme and made the first week before starting the new Academic Year, intense but unforgettable for the new students. In this week, I met briefly with most of the students for whom I am going to be a Coach. The kick-off of Project Move where 25 third-year students run five outlets during 20 weeks in which they guide 4x a new group of second- and first-year students. This initiative is the execution of how the project team of creating the Design Based Education, envisioned the curriculum to be. However, you cannot jump from the basement to the ceiling, and therefore it takes some time. In this, La Verne York, and the dedicated team of Practical Instructors of NHL Stenden Hospitality Group have a leading role in supporting the students in this unknown and challenging journey. In the meanwhile, a Revenue Competition in cooperation with Hotelschool Maastricht (Zuyd Hogeschool | Zuyd University of Applied Sciences) and Hotelschool Breda (Breda University of Applied Sciences) was organised which took place for 2 days in the last week, in an online (Teams) and offline (in Breda) setting. Many thanks to our 8 students of Hotel Management School NHL Stenden who voluntarily joined this competition in which they were mixed with the students from Hotelschool Maastricht and cracked 5 Revenue Management cases. In the end, one of the cases needed to be presented which was announced to the teams upon arriving in the room where the presentation took place.  Many thanks to Luc Partouns, Frederic Toitot, and Stan Josephi for the great cooperation, and Robin Sleegers (RevControl) for taking part in the jury and Marianne Chrispijn special thanks for being a jury member and arranging the day in the real world at Odyssey Hotel Group for the winners of this competition: congrats to Jocelyne Majeau and her team (see pictures below). Totally different but also very interesting was the conference ‘van foto naar film’ about Programmatic Assessment taking place at Mauritskazerne in Ede where insights were shared on how to embed Programmatic Assessment in education. Well, we are doing a lot of things right, but still can improve which needs to start with: language 😊 Curious about what the next month will bring, though, I already know there will be a lot of Tech & Innovation involved, and we start with students in the RevSim simulation! No worries, I will keep you posted 😉
