Lyceum-Manila Tourism HRM Food & Beverage – 200 hrs Food & Beverage – 200 hrs Travel Agency – 400 hrs Front Desk – 400 hrs Airlines / Hotel – 400 hrs Housekeeping – 400 hrs OJT in other countries is now a popular option for Tourism and HRM schools; some schools are even “incentivizing” students to take their OJT abroad by increasing the credits. “OJT Abroad” Programs of Schools ABE: Singapore, United States DLSU-CSB: United States, Europe Far Eastern University: United States St.Paul College: Singapore Lyceum-Manila: Malaysia Sample Incentive Given by Schools Tourism: 200hrs in a Hotel in another country = 200 hrs for Food & Beverage + 200 hrs for Airlines / Hotel HRM: 200 hrs in a Hotel in another country = 200 hrs Food & Beverage + 200 hrs Housekeeping

The Opportunity Taking one’s OJT in another country now has perceived benefits for students of HRM and Tourism “ Taking my OJT and getting some work experience in another country will give an edge when I apply for a job after graduation” “ Living in another country will teach me how to be independent and will help in my growth” “ It’s fun to live in another country, even if only for a while” None or Underdeveloped OJT In Korea product in the market. In terms or product positioning, an OJT in Korea product can be positioned as an “ideal alternative” to existing products already in the market. PERCEPTION OF QUALITY AND PRICE Vs.

Malaysia, Singapore or Other SEA Countries: Higher in Price but Much Better in Quality Korea’s popularity as a Leisure destination and general goodwill of Filipinos towards Korea and Koreans can rub off ( the “halo” effect ).
