Introduction to Jinling Hotel Management Cadre Academy

Jinling Hotel Management Cadre College is the only tourism higher vocational college in the province established with the approval of the Jiangsu Provincial People's Government and sponsored by the Jiangsu Provincial Tourism Bureau. The college was formerly known as Jinling Hotel Management Cadre College and Nanjing Tourism School. Jinling Hotel Management Cadre College was established in 1989. It was the first institution in my country approved by the former State Education Commission to cultivate middle- and senior-level hotel management talents. Nanjing Tourism School, established in 1978, is my country’s first tourism school and is known in the industry as “the cradle of Chinese tourism talents.” In 2001, with the approval of the Jiangsu Provincial People's Government, the schools merged substantially and became the most important talent training base for the tourism industry in Jiangsu Province and the largest hotel talent training center in China.
