globally renowned facilities and educators. International students are attracted by the range of quality study options
and excellent lifestyle. With the 3rd highest number of international students and a global university system ranking
of 8th, it is easy to see why Australia makes sense for study experience. The university system is well structured for
international students, and we will be receiving a top-quality education. The success of the Australian education
system is highlighted by the fact that the country has provided 15 Nobel laureates. Australian discoveries and
inventions, including penicillin, the black box recorder and Wi-Fi, are used globally every day. The climate and
outdoor lifestyle are world famous and continually entice people to the country. Year round the climate allows for a
top quality of life. The climate of my home town and Australia are same. There are large number of education
providers in Nepal in management stream with Tribhuvan University, Pokhara University, Purbanchal University and
large number of international affiliated colleges from UK, US, India and Europe. There is rigid education system and
course intakes are not flexible and there are limited number of course varieties. Advanced Diploma types of courses
are almost rare or not available in Nepal. This course build my foundation on hospitality and tourism career to be a
successful professional in Nepalese Tourism sector. I may choose India, US, and Europe to pursue my career. But
visa regulations of these countries are tough where as Australian visa rules to student is friendly and inviting.

completion of your selected academic program, list any other reasons for choosing this particular academic
Program and education institution rather than a similar course at an education institution elsewhere:

New tourist destinations, Nepalese habit of travel culture, rise of foreign tourists to 1 million and billions of rupees of
investment in pipeline through Foreign Direct Investment, favorable political and economic climate and opening of
hundreds of hotels and resorts etc led me to decide to develop myself as a hospitality professional. By studying
vocational Advanced Diploma in hospitality management hospitality management courses, I will develop the critical
skills and industry experience for delivering the highest standards of guest service and presentation, our career
opportunities will be unlimited and I will be highly sought after by employers in Nepal. Successful leaders in the
hospitality industry are skilled in both hospitality and businesses. I hope to learn proper food handling, hygiene, food
production and related matters such as team work and budgeting from this course. Furthermore, the Advance
Diploma of Hospitality Management builds on all the core chef and extends this to the high level leadership and
management skills required to operate a commercial, high end restaurant.

courses to enroll in Perth college of business and technology for my desired course. International graduates are taken
as highly skilled work force by the Hospitality industry in Nepal & Abroad. A hard working and smart candidate will
never have to be out of job. Further, the students will also have the conceptual idea of becoming entrepreneur. This
