industry practice is our bread and butter

SHRIM is the first and only hotel school in the Philippines to be awarded a Level IV accreditation by the Philippine Accrediting Association of Schools, Colleges and Universities (PAASCU), and also one of the few schools that have been conferred as a Center for Excellence in Hotel and Restaurant Management by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED).

SHRIM adheres to the philosophy that superior education culminates in practice. Our campus, the Angelo King International Center (AKIC), houses industry standard kitchen laboratories where students apply what they learned through hands-on experience.
Just as salt and pepper are fundamentals of flavor, a balance between theory and practice are the foundations of our discipline. This is the reason why SHRIM invests heavily in industry standard laboratory facilities and training facilities internally called Hatcheries. These include a 50-room 4-star hotel, a travel & tours office, a fine dining French restaurant, a gourmet cafe, an off-premise catering unit, and a cafeteria and quick service food facility. These hatcheries do not only teach the necessary skills but also the important components of operations, marketing and entrepreneurship.
industry on detour
Now a trillion dollar industry, world tourism experienced a 4% growth in 2019. The continued growth of Philippine Tourism is stimulating a lot of investment in the hotel sector. As a country, we have achieved our forecast in 2019 with 8.26 million tourists representing 15.24% increase. The revenues we received from both international and domestic tourism contributed 12.7% to our GDP in 2019.
Dubbed as the Golden Era of Hotel Construction, the years of 2018 to 2021 are exciting years for the Philippine hotel industry. About 8,000 hotel rooms will be added to the country’s hotel room inventory. Property giants and hotel brands are slated to open new properties in the country in the coming years, which leads to job opportunities in the industry.
In the first two months of 2020, the Philippines already surpassed its tourism targets for the first quarter of the year. And then COVID-19 happened.
The tourism industry has been crippled by this pandemic but history has proven that the industry always bounces back. Ultimately, we see this pandemic as an opportunity to reshape the industry to embrace new products, for new destinations to emerge, to create new experiences, and move towards sustainability and a new model for tourism.
4-star hotel with 5-star experience
Inside the AKIC Campus is a 4-star hotel with restaurants and banquet halls where students, mentored by hotel staff, render duty to practice hotel and hospitality service on real hotel guests.
