CHKM Girls batch - 26/11/2007

Keeping the promise to bring in international class vocational training to enhance the employment prospects of the rural women in Qila Raipur, Jassi Khangura will be felicitating 30 female students who will make it to the fifth batch of the one-year-old launched Certificate course in Hospitality Kitchen Management (CHKM). This course is of great success; currently running 3rd batch. These students belong to various villages in the area and were looking for a specialization after completing secondary school. They have been selected from hundreds of applicants from Punjab through stringent written and personality tests.
While Speaking with the press, Jassi Khangura said that this was the first step toward his living up to his vision of bringing all round development to Qila Raipur. He started this course in March’07. This batch for girls is scheduled to begin in April 2008. There are 4 batches every year. This course will help 120 rural youths from the area every year to build professional career in a globally employable skill. We have sent 60 students in 1st and 2nd batch respectively and next 30 students are under the first phase.

CHKM is a 1 year course launched by Majestic Park Plaza and Sarovar Hotels - the fourth largest chain of hotels in India to prepare youth in the coming months and years to meet the unprecedented and fast growing demand for professionally trained staff in the hospitality sector in India and abroad. The course is accredited by the FHRAI - the Federation of Hotel and Restaurant Association of India - the apex body in its field. The course includes a three-month residential training at the FHRAI Institute of Hospitality Management, Greater NOIDA - a premium institution offering courses in collaboration with the globally renowned and respected EHL, Switzerland.

The course is structured in three phases. In the first phase, the student is provided basic communication skills and hospitality orientation at Majestic Park Plaza. The second phase comprises a three-month classroom and practical training in Hospitality Kitchens at the FHRAI Institute at Greater NOIDA. In the third phase, the student spends six months as an apprentice at one of the 35 Sarovar chain hotels in the country.

On successful completion of the course, the student is guaranteed a job. It is expected that a certificate holder from this course having 2-3 years of post qualification work experience will find very lucrative job opportunities in India and overseas. 

1/3 of seats are reserved for the SC/ST category. 

Currently the student is being asked to pay only for the three month residential training at the FHRAI Institute, Greater NOIDA which cost Rs30, 000 . Jassi has subsidized 75% of even the FHRAI fees for the students belonging to SC/ST. During the apprenticeship of six months, the student gets full board accommodation and a stipend at one of the Sarovar hotels in India. Thus this course prepares the student for coveted employment in prestigious hotels at a very low cost.  

All services provided by Jassi Khangura and Majestic Plaza are free of cost.

Within 5 years 600 youths will have started this course of which 360 will have completed it. It is likely that many of these will apply for employment visas to countries like the USA, UK, CANADA, AUSTRALIA and NEW ZEALAND
