DHS & SG Quest Global Talent Development Programs
DHS, in collaboration with SG Quest Singapore, introduced the 24-Month Management Training Program in 2018 to address graduate employability through structured international exposure and industry-led training. The inaugural intake, comprising UiTM School of Hospitality graduates, achieved a 100% placement outcome, with 40 candidates successfully placed to date.
In 2026, DHS and SG Quest further strengthened their international initiatives with the launch of the Live-in Tutor Program in Kazakhstan, a 12-month structured internship designed for unemployed graduates and qualified tutors seeking global experience and professional development.
