Success Speak

Real experiences. Genuine voices. Hear from those who’ve walked the path and grown with ISAS.

I’m proud to have studied at ISAS. I did my industrial training at Grand Sheraton, Bangalore, where I received the Star- Intern Card for my performance. I also had the chance to take part in the All Kerala Intercollegiate Master Chef Contest, where I was the Runner-Up—a moment I’ll always remember. Now, I’m working as the Head Chef at Boons Global Ltd. in UK, and I’m truly grateful to ISAS for the care, attention, and support they gave me throughout my journey. The college believed in me and helped me build the skills and confidence I needed to succeed.

Sreehari K HEAD CHEF, BOONS GLOBAL LTD, UK

I’m grateful to ISAS for laying the foundation of my hospitality career. After completing my PG Diploma in Hospitality Management, I got the opportunity to do my Industrial Exposure Training (IET) at JW Marriott Goa and my On-the-Job Training (OJT) at InterContinental Chennai. Today, I’m proud to be pursuing a Management Trainee program in Thailand — a dream made possible because of the hands-on training and continuous support I received at ISAS. Every step of the way, the college ensured I was industry-ready.

Jibin Joy

I'm proud to have completed my dual program in BBA Airline & Airport Management and Advanced Diploma in Hotel Management at ISAS. It was a truly life-changing experience. Thanks to ISAS, I got two amazing opportunities — my IET at JW Marriott Goa, a luxury property, and my current OJT at Mai Khaolak Beach Resort & Spa in Thailand. A big thank you to ISAS and all my teachers for their support. I'm especially thankful to Abita Ma’am for seeing the potential in each of us and giving us the best opportunities. The values and skills I learned here will always stay with me.

Arjun Shiju

My journey with ISAS has been truly transformative. During my industrial training at InterContinental Chennai, I was honored to receive the 'Best Intern Award'—a proud moment that reflected the exceptional training and support I received at ISAS. I’m currently pursuing my On-the-Job Training (OJT) at Le Méridien, Kochi, and continue to benefit from the college’s dedicated guidance. What stands out most to me is how ISAS offers personalized support, especially for female students, creating a safe and empowering environment where we’re encouraged to chase our dreams with confidence. I’m genuinely grateful to be part of an institution that not only prioritizes skill development but truly cares about each student’s growth and success.

ISAS has been more than just a college—it was a turning point in my life. The training at Taj kochi, the constant motivation from our mentors, and the care shown to every student, especially girls, gave me the confidence to chase my dreams. Today, as I work with Princess Cruise, I carry the values and lessons from ISAS with pride and gratitude. I will always cherish being part of the ISAS family.

ISAS is where my passion turned into a profession. The guidance, hands-on training—including my internship at ITC Grand Goa—and the chance to win Runner-Up in the Intercollegiate Master Chef Contest shaped my journey.
