As we enter the new year. I wanted to take a moment to wish you all the best for 2023, the year of the rabbit. May this be a year filled with health, happiness, and success for all.
As we look ahead to the coming year, there are certainly many exciting things to look forward to. One such event is the first graduation ceremony for Minor Hotels' first cohort of team members who have completed the Certificate in International Hotel Administration a year and a half of study with AIHM. This will take place on Saturday, March 11th, 2023, at the Anantara Riverside Bangkok Resort.
As we continue to develop our Career Service department, we have been able to provide more opportunities for our students to complete internships and experience new destinations. With the expansion of Minor Hotels, there are even more internships available in various fields such as accounting, marketing, public relations, sales, and events in locations throughout Europe and the Middle East. This demonstrates the wide range of possibilities available to our students.
In the coming months, AIHM will also be launching Executive Education courses for lifelong learners looking to add new skills and competencies to their toolkit and advance in their careers. For instance, we are offering courses on supervisory development for young leaders who want to learn to manage others confidently, or for experienced professionals who want to create more cohesive existing teams. These courses provide excellent networking opportunities with like-minded individuals, as well as the chance to ask questions and gain insights from experienced leaders in the field.
As we approach the start of the new term following the Songkran holidays, we are also accepting applications for the BBA in Global Hospitality Management. This prestigious degree programme is ideal for those looking to embark on a career in the international hospitality industry and offers endless opportunities for young people who want to see the world and work in new cultures. It is also a great choice for those with a unique vision and an entrepreneurial spirit who want to network and gain the tools necessary to start their own business.
Finally, I wanted to let you know that we are now accepting applications for academic scholarships worth up to 50% of tuition fees for the September 2023 BBA intake. These scholarships are open to applicants who are a minimum of 17.5 years old on the first day of the term, have successfully completed M6 or high school, and can demonstrate English language proficiency.

If you have any questions about the admissions process, our team is available for online consultations. This is particularly convenient for international students or those with more in-depth inquiries about their applications.
Thank you and best wishes for a successful and fulfilling 2023.
