Apparently, the hospitality industry is growing at a phenomenal rate, as more and more people are able to experience international travel. All over the world, better-equipped and more lavish hotels and resorts are attracting ever more willing travelers for business or pleasure. International hotels and resorts are already demanding highly trained professional staff.

On a global basis the hospitality and tourism industry employs more than 10% of the worldwide workforce. It contributes over $4 trillion in gross global output. This means travel and tourism is the world's largest industry. It is at the top in terms of size and economic impact. The hospitality industry has been experiencing a boom time. A plethora of new hotels have been opened; contract catering is becoming an ever-stronger force to be reckoned with; new concepts are abounding; and there is a constant need for top-level industry consultants to advise on the profession as its trans-global expansion continues apace. The enormous scope for movement between the industry's many and varied sectors is a vital consideration in view of the uncertainty of today's job market, where the idea of a 'job for life' is rapidly disappearing. The profession currently employs one-in-ten people worldwide. A total of 30-35,000 trained people are required at management and supervisory level every year in the UK alone until 2010 to fulfill this potential. The good news for job seekers is that our best estimates currently show that too few students per annum are embarking upon college and university courses. There is, therefore, an enormous opportunity for thousands of job seekers to pursue rewarding careers in this exciting growth industry.

Today there can be few more exciting, challenging and varied careers - offering opportunities for fast promotion - than those offered by the hospitality, tourism and leisure industry. This is the world's fastest-growing, job-creating profession. One of the many wonderful aspects of this industry is the flexibility and choice it offers. You can start by working in hotels, and if that doesn't suit, you can change to contract catering or use your experience to go into consultancy, manage a bar, run a restaurant or fast-food outlet, or even aspire to becoming the new Jamie Oliver! If you love action and adventure, then there is the forces' catering sector. If your talents lie in accountancy, then you could become the financial director of a large hotel or catering company. If you are an Information Technology (IT) geek, the profession is in constant need of IT specialists. In short, there is a job to suit just about everyone!

The media has been filled in recent times with stories about more and more people looking for vocational courses, offering better long-term job prospects - a need made even more acute by the fact that the majority of students today have to contribute financially to their tutorial fees. The hospitality and leisure industry undoubtedly provides a very attractive option in this respect. One of our priority objectives is the setting and maintaining of management standards worldwide; and we are constantly seeking to help the hospitality profession maximize its potential through valuing its greatest asset: its management and staff.

In an economic climate where 'adaptability' and 'flexibility' are now key considerations when following a career path, today's managers and aspiring managers are increasingly responsible for their own career development through updating their skills and knowledge. Recognizing this fact, we are more conscious than ever of the need to provide support for members - from the time they are students; to the moment they retire from the profession.

We provide unrivalled opportunities to network and make contact with other industry professionals, both nationally and internationally, through our network of associates. As more and more university/college graduates flood the job market, the competition has become ever fiercer. The Indian hospitality industry is mainly metro dependent, as 75 to 80 per cent of the revenues of top hotel chains come from the five metros. The hospitality industry is poised to grow at an even faster rate and reach INR826.76 billion by 2010. It is estimated that over the next two years 90,000-100,000 rooms will be added across different categories throughout the country. By any standards, this is a phenomenal growth and we wish to be there to cater to such a demand in the coming years. We have the requisite prime land and potential to launch the varied hospitality industry activity at major locations in the country and specifically in an exciting and energetic city like Hyderabad in Andhra Pradesh , India .

As part of our expansion program, we have diversified into the vibrant real estate market in this country by incorporating a company in the name of SIERRA INFRATECH PVT. LTD. We are open and flexible in welcoming a like-minded institution for an Academic Association in setting up their network of businesses at our location. We would like to establish an Asia-Pacific partnership as part of our association with the said entity.
