An Update from John Fong - 3rd Edition
Dear EuroCHRIE Friends,
Greetings from The Emirates Academy of Hospitality Management (EAHM) – the Proud Host of EuroCHRIE Dubai 2014. Under two weeks to go we can’t wait to welcome you!
The Conference Programme Booklet is now ready – feel free to browse through it to start planning the various sessions that you will be attending. We will be including an e-version of this booklet (together with the hyperlinks to the papers/posters) in a USB when you arrive in Dubai. For now, kindly note that all delegates are invited to the Welcome Reception on 6 October at the Jumeirah Beach Hotel (Sundeck Level 2) beginning at 6:30pm. First-time attendees are welcome from 5:30pm onwards.
We have noted as well that not all international delegates will be staying at the “Jumeirah Beach Hotel”, “The Emirates Academy Lodging” or “Golden Tulip Al Barsha” (all of which offer complimentary shuttle service). Hence, in an effort to provide a greater level of service, please let us know which hotel you have decided to stay at and if any hotel is hosting more than 20 delegates, we will endeavor to provide a shuttle service and you will be informed accordingly. Kindly fill in this survey form to let us know – note too that the form enables you to upload your powerpoint slides in advance (if you are presenting) and also has an option for you to indicate if you will be joining us for the walking tour of the Jumeirah Hotels on the last day of the conference.
Also, just a gentle reminder that there are two EuroCHRIE Career Academy courses that are still available for you to register:
- 1) “Train the Trainer” Session for the “Certification in Hotel Industry Analytics” [5 – 6 October, 9am to 5pm]. Please contact Steve Hood at steve@str.com
- 2) Hotel Business Acumen Instructor Certification [8 Oct, 2pm to 6pm]. This session is Powered by RED Global - please contact Peter Starks at pstarks@triad.rr.com
Hope you find the above information useful. All the best with your final preparations for the conference and we look forward to welcoming you at the reception on 6 October at the Jumeirah Beach Hotel (Sundeck Level 2).
