“This represents a significant milestone which brings forward the shared aim of promoting excellence and the development of human capital in the tourism and hospitality sector of the Maldives,” Fairmont Maldives said.
The MoU was signed on 17 August by the Vice Chancellor of the Maldives National University, Dr. Mohamed Shareef and Fairmont Maldives’ General Manager, Steven Stefaniuk, in the presence of representatives from both organisations.
“We are thrilled to partner with the Maldives National University to offer their students worthwhile internship opportunities. Our goal is to give back to the community and make a positive impact by nurturing a new generation of Maldivian talents and helping them enhance their skills and knowledge to succeed in the industry,” said Steven Stefaniuk.
The agreement aims to strengthen, promote, and develop cooperation between the two establishments based on the intention to contribute to the industry and academia positively.
