Accor, a global leader in hospitality, has signed an MOU with the Indian School of Hospitality (ISH) to create a structured pathway for future hospitality leaders. This collaboration establishes a specialised Postgraduate Programme (PGP) in Sales and Revenue Management.
The one-year program, developed in partnership with ISH, leveraging its alliance with Les Roches, combines six months of advanced academic learning at ISH with a six-month applied immersion across Accor’s hotels in India. Each participant in the program will receive a pre-placement offer (PPO), ensuring that Accor secures top-tier management talent before they formally enter the workforce. The ISH-Accor program builds this pipeline by selecting professionals with prior work experience, training them with a curriculum designed around global hospitality standards, and providing structured career progression opportunities. Kunal Vasudeva, Co-Founder & Managing Director, Indian School of Hospitality, said, “This collaboration between ISH and Accor creates a career-defining opportunity for aspiring hospitality professionals. It ensures that Accor has access to a workforce trained not just in hospitality operations but in strategic, revenue-driven decision-making. The industry needs forward thinking professionals, and this program is an essential step in shaping the next generation of hospitality leadership.”
