Academic learning is a wonderful way to begin an education in one’s field of interest. However, in order to complete one’s knowledge, one needs the experience, something “practical”, something that is not taught in books or given in a professor’s lecture. During my in-training, I gained some of this valuable know-how which I did not get in a classroom. It is the practical experience of the internship that really brought the texts and lectures into focus.

I really enjoyed the time I spend working in different hotels and restaurants during my internships. And, although it was not always easy and that I made some mistakes, the experience I gained will surely be very useful in my future career. I just want to thank IMI for giving me the possibility to have all these internships in Switzerland.

I could hardly believe myself, when I saw the staff carry 16 glasses at a time. When I first tried, I took only 10; but unfortunately, I broke them all. Then my colleagues taught me and I practiced a lot. Now I can confidently show the new coming trainees how to do it also and I realize why in-training is such an important part in the course.

In-training is a vital part of the completion of an academic semester in hospitality and tourism field. It is the final stage and step towards successful completion of any course

In-training is the best way for students to understand completely what they have learned in school. I am convinced this period will play significant role in my entire life.

During my in-training I learned that professionalism, always being well groomed, the courage to handle tasks without hesitation and having a good sense of humour is very important when working in the hospitality industry.

Especially in the hospitality industry, where everything depends upon the practical skills and experience of the individual, it is impossible to expand your skills only with the theoretical classroom studies. A vocation in the hospitality industry is “blind” without practical training and practical training is “dumb” without the theory previously received in class.

In-training is the part of success in any major. Thanks to practical experience we understand that we must keep on learning and improving. Beside the difficulties that we encounter in-training, it is a far better lesson than theory. The extra experience which I have got now is the foundation for my job in the future.
