I learned hospitality through lunch & table manners class, hotel manners seminar, and Tokyo Disneyland Park experience.
Since 2015, we have been holding off-campus training (special classes) every year for first-year students. With the full cooperation of Hotel Okura Tokyo Bay, we hold a lunch and table manners course and a hotel etiquette seminar titled "The Heart and Form of Hospitality" every year, providing a valuable learning opportunity to learn about manners for working adults through hands-on experience and to learn about the concept of hospitality. In addition, a park experience at Tokyo Disneyland allows students to experience firsthand the hospitality practices of cast members, an experience that cannot be learned in a classroom. Among the events held at Teikyo University Junior College, this event is particularly popular with students, and has received positive reviews in student surveys every year. Please note that we are currently not conducting off-campus training due to COVID-19 prevention measures.
Purpose of off-campus training
The lunch and table manners class at Hotel Okura Tokyo Bay and the hotel manners seminar are aimed at learning table manners, which are essential for working adults, and at the same time, interacting with each other and between students and teachers to promote friendship. Furthermore, by actually interacting with the people who work at the hotel and Tokyo Disney Resort, we aim to understand the meaning and significance of working, and to create a retrospective report after the training to further deepen our learning.
Flow of off-campus training
The training begins with taking a lunch and table manners course, and not only how to eat food and how to handle tableware, but also the people who participate in the dining place eat peacefully while respecting each other's position. You will learn about the behavior that is required as a member of society after graduation. After that, you will take the Hotel Manners Seminar "Hospitality" Heart "and" Shape "" to learn the basic reception, customer service manners, and communication methods practiced at Hotel Okura Tokyo. Finally, we will have a Tokyo Disneyland Park experience (free action) and enhance the learning effect by actually checking and experiencing what we learned in the seminar.
