Future Leaders Experience

Bring your Hospitality curriculum to life at Blue Mountains International Hotel Management School (BMIHMS).

 

What your students can experience

The Future Leaders Experience is a free, curriculum-aligned campus experience for Year 11–12 students, tailored to your school and delivered at our Leura campus in the Blue Mountains.  Choose a half-day, full-day or overnight experience and work with our team to shape the activities around your students, timetable and curriculum requirements. 

Curriculum-aligned activities

Tailored to your students, learning objectives and Hospitality syllabus outcomes, with activities shaped around your curriculum and timetable.

Hands-on hospitality workshops

Practical workshops across areas such as food and beverage, front office, housekeeping, events and guest service in a professional hotel environment.

Pathways and careers

Explore higher education, employment and career pathways through insights from BMIHMS students, alumni, teaching staff and industry professionals.

Depending on your school’s objectives, a visit may include:

  • Practical workshops in food and beverage, front office, housekeeping, events or guest service
  • An introduction to Hotel Management and careers across operations, events, marketing, human resources and management
  • Interactive activities that give students an insight into hotel operations
  • Discussions with BMIHMS students, alumni, teaching staff and industry professionals
  • Information about higher education, employment and career pathways
  • Leadership, teamwork, communication and employability activities

A program designed around your school

Every Future Leaders Experience is different. Schools can choose a focused Hospitality learning experience, a broader introduction to Hotel Management or a combination of practical, academic and career-based activities.

The BMIHMS team will work with you to tailor the experience to your learning objectives, student interests and curriculum requirements. It can be designed to:

  • Support classroom learning and Hospitality syllabus outcomes
  • Complement an existing school event, careers program or industry visit
  • Introduce students to higher education and university life
  • Explore the range of careers available in hospitality
  • Develop teamwork, communication and leadership skills
  • Include specific topics or activities requested by your school
  • What teachers can expect

    The BMIHMS team will work closely with your school before, during and after the visit, including discussing learning objectives, student interests, curriculum connections, preferred activities and practical requirements.

    For teachers, the experience is an opportunity to extend classroom learning into a professional hospitality environment, connect with hospitality educators and industry practitioners and explore further study and career pathways with your students.

    What students gain

    Students get an inside look at Hospitality and Hotel Management, with opportunities to participate, ask questions and see how careers extend beyond traditional hotel roles.

    The experience can help students build:

  • A stronger understanding of hospitality careers
  • Awareness of higher education pathways
  • Practical and transferable workplace skills
  • A clearer view of the opportunities a career in hospitality can offer
  • Students can also explore further study options at BMIHMS, including the Bachelor of Business (International Hotel Management).
