The Applicant Organization , Zespol Szkol Morskich in` Gdańsk, is planning to implement and carry out the second edition of a project called “A hotel worker in London”.

This programme will correlate with the Polish syllabus of the Ministry of Education for hospitality major. Before leaving, the students with attend a course which will give them psychological, cultural and linguistic preparation.

Apprenticeship in London hotels, where workers from many countries are employed, will enable them to gain not only professional competences, but also cultural, personal and practical ones. The necessity to use English language during work and afterwards will increase the communication skills, which, due to the fact that Poland is becoming more and more popular among foreign visitors, may prove a great asset for the students’ future careers.
