Hotel aan de Dam, new College Hotel for Hotel & Catering School

In August 2007 the Hotel and Catering School (for middle management) in Middelburg started a special fast track programme for young people with a higher secondary education (HAVO) and an interest in hospitality management. Again, next term, enthusiastic young people interested in a short-term intensive training, are welcome to join this programme.

A two-year fast track programme trains students to become mid level hospitality managers. A vocational (Dutch “level-4”) programma allows graduates access to Higher hotel management academies.

Operating the hotel

ROC Zeeland offers a one-year course in which students gain the necessary knowledge and skills. During the second year small groups of approximately five students gain practical experience while running the day-to-day hotel operations in the College Hotel aan de Dam. This hotel is situated in Middelburg’s city centre and operates in close cooperation with the College Hotel and Catering School in Middelburg. Other students follow similar practicum training in other hotels.
