* Work Experience
Industrial placement is a key element of the course and offers the students an excellent opportunity to develop a range of practical knowledge and skills. During the four months (June - September) weeks of paid placement students are able to work in a variety of areas, gain hands-on experience and learn how an organisation is managed.

KES COLLEGE has excellent contacts with a large number of employers across the island. Links have been established with many of the major players in the Travel, Hospitality and Leisure industry who are all willing to offer placement opportunities to our students.

Placement tutors work closely with the students to identify the most suitable organization and location, giving advice and support prior to, during and after the placement.
