As a premier culinary school homegrown in the UAE, the International Centre for Culinary Arts (ICCA) has always provided its students with the best possible exposure to kickstart their culinary journeys.
An essential aspect of this endeavour is Career Engagement Activities, designed to offer students the opportunity to learn, grow, and enhance their skills. DoubleTree By Hilton, Dubai Jumeirah Beach, and ICCA, Dubai recently came together for a career engagement activity that left a lasting impression on student chefs.
As part of Hilton’s Career Month initiative, the event hosted at ICCA’s award-winning kitchen commenced with a warm welcome from the team. The team shared insights into the rich history and global presence of the Hilton brand. Student chefs had the unique opportunity to learn about the traditions and principles that have made Hilton a renowned name in the hospitality industry.
The highlight of the day was the interactive cooking class where ICCA student chefs were guided by Hilton’s Pasty Chef Ahamed Ahsaan in baking the world-famous DoubleTree Chocolate Chips Cookie. This iconic treat is known for its warm, gooey center and mouthwatering aroma, offering a small taste of the hospitality Hilton is celebrated for worldwide. As students, along with top HR leaders from Hilton, rolled their sleeves, measured ingredients, mixed the dough, and watched the cookies bake to perfection, they gained practical experience of a real-world environment.
Engagement activities like these offer young chefs incredible opportunities to acquire new skills and take their culinary journeys to the next level. ICCA remains committed to nurturing the dreams of future chefs and culinary professionals, and the collaboration with coveted brands like DoubleTree by Hilton is a testament to this commitment. Such Career Engagement Activities play a crucial role in preparing students for a successful and rewarding career in the culinary arts.
These endeavours not only provide students with a taste of what awaits them in the real world but also serve as a source of inspiration and motivation as they embark on their culinary adventures.
