Trisara Academy in Phuket Opens New Hospitality Internship Program

Trisara Academy, a training facility in Phuket operated by Montara Hospitality Group, is launching an internship program that’s open to the public.

The 3-month internship program, which will begin on 2 March 2015, consists of 2 separate courses, one in Food & Beverage Operations and another in Culinary Preparation.

Khun Narong Pattamasaevi, Owner and Chairman of Montara Hospitality Group, said, “As a locally owned and operated hotel group, we understand that there is a growing need for skilled employees in hotels and resorts across Thailand. We believe that the Academy’s intensive 520-hour course will provide students with the training and knowledge that they need to succeed in Thailand’s hospitality sector.”

The certificate course in Culinary Preparation will be led by Trisara’s veteran Executive Chef Chalermchai Prakobkit, who has fortified his own skills in many Michelin star kitchens worldwide, including El Celler de Can Roca, #1 The World's 50 Best Restaurants 2013.
