| Summary |
Education in Jamaica is unlike most educational systems. While there are public tertiary institutions available, the existing bureaucracy does not allow them to operate so that all students receive the same level and quality of education. The Western Hospitality Institute was created to alleviate this issue, while training a cadre of students to meet the growing demands of the hospitality and tourism industry. The organizers witnessed the challenges of students' interested in hospitality and tourism but lacked essential entry requirements and designed programs to educate and train them, as well as, provide access to other tertiary institutions |
