COSTA
Cruises has teamed up with the Central Romana Corporation to invest $600,000 in
a training school for people in the Dominican Republic, Central and South
American hotel trade. The Casa de Campo school in La Romana will be the centre
of excellence for training hotel personnel.
The
two companies are already partners in the management of Catalina Island,
Costa's private Caribbean beach for cruise calls.
The
investment will be used to modernise an existing building which will be used
for classrooms and offices as well as build accommodation for students.
It is hoped the school will train about 2,000 students during its first year on refresher courses for Costa staff and professional training courses for newly recruited employees from the Dominican Republic.
