AIMING to tap the growing demand for workers in the hospitality industry especially workers in cruise ships, a Manila-based company recruitment agency recently opened a training center in Cebu.
“We have already 90 students taking up housekeeping services and food and beverages services,” said Paolo Santino A. Guevara, The Magsaysay Center for Hospitality and Culinary Arts (MIHCA) director.
The MIHCA is a training arm of the recruitment company, Magsaysay Group of Companies, which opened its training center along F. Ramos St. in Cebu City late last month.
Guevarra said their firm had already deployed 42,000 seafarers through Magsaysay Maritime Corp. and Magsaysay Global Services, Inc.
“Of that number about 3,000 are from Bohol and Cebu. With the opening of our training center here. We hope to get more from this region,” said Alvin D. Gonzales, MIHCA sales and marketing manager.
According to Guevara there is a need for more of this trained professionals globally especially that the Filipinos are preferred because of our natural warmth, hard work and dedication.
