ACROSS THE BOUNDARY ……..


The reputation of RBCS GROUP is extending beyond the boundaries of Mumbai and there are several students from across India and around the world who travel to Mumbai every year to attend quality training at RBCS GROUP.


FROM PONDICHERRY

A.Munisamy came from Pondicherry to do TOTAL TRAVEL EMPLOYMENT PACKAGE….

A.Munisamy , residing originally at Pondicherry has decided to pursue a career in Tourism and here is what A.Munisamy has to say…

“I am an M.T.A. (Master of Tourism Administration) graduate from Pondicherry University. Based on my talk over the phone, I have decided to join the TOTAL TRAVEL EMPLOYMENT PACKAGE comprising of CRS from VIASINC, USA ; Fares and E-Ticketing from VIRGIN ATLANTIC, U.K; International Tourism (practical module) from CITY & GUILDS, U.K. and Diploma in Compact Travel and Tourism from IHCTM.” Mr Munisamy boarded the train on 18 June and reached Mumbai on 19 June and commenced his training on 25 June 2004. Like Munisamy, several students from Goa, Pune, Nasik, Nagpur, Delhi and many students across India come to IHCTM to experience quality training.


FROM NAGPUR

Anil and Vasant came from Nagpur to attend a career talk on 9 June 2004 and now they have taken a 3 weeks break from their job to attend a crash course in IATA/FIATA Cargo Introductory Exam Anil Kumar Verma and Vasant Chandekar are well aware like many Cargo aspirants that a Cargo Hub is coming up in Nagpur by 2006 or even earlier and will generate plenty of employment and entrepreneurship opportunities. 


Anil and Vasant first came to Mumbai to explore scope of pursuing a Career in Cargo and attended a career talk organized by IHCTM on 9 June 2004 at World Trade Centre and were convinced that to pursue a career in cargo there is no substitute for quality education. They later enrolled for IATA/FIATA Introductory Course with IHCTM and will be appearing for their examination in October 2004.

 


FROM KENYA

Fatema Nazerali came from Kenya to attend Diploma in Travel and Tourism and VA-1 Fares and E-ticketing course....

Fatema, like A.Munisamy wants to make a career in the field of Travel and Tourism and has diverse interests. Originally she enrolled for Diploma in Compact Travel and Tourism along with CRS from VIASINC, USA and Fares & E-ticketing (VA-1) from VIRGIN ATLANTIC, U.K. After a few weeks she enrolled at RBCS GROUP for the following additional programmes Interior Decoration from IMFAA (RBCS GROUP); Diploma in Beauty from SCHNELL HANS (RBCS GROUP) and IATA/UFTAA Consultant Course Training at IHCTM. Here is what Fatema has to say….


The teachers and staff are helpful and they assist me whenever I have any problems. I have found the courses offered by RBCS GROUP to be challenging and learning has been an enjoyable experience and I am certain that the foundation I have received will be helpful for me in the future. Fatema will return back to Kenya end of this year after completing her training and appearing for the IATA/UFTAA Consultant examination in September 2004. At the time of print, Fatema has already received her certificate from VIRGIN ATLANTIC (VA-1) after scoring 95%.


FROM TURKEY

Umit Çakir from Bursa, Turkey was the most adventurous of them all. Barely 26, this was probably the first time he was going outside Turkey and he decided to travel to India by road to pursue a career in the Airline and Tourism Industry. 

He initially enrolled for the IATA/UFTAA Foundation Course and like Fatema, he experienced quality training and now has also enrolled for IATA/FIATA Cargo Introductory and Dangerous Goods qualifications with IHCTM. Umit was in touch with IHCTM Director Subhash Motwani thru e-mail since 2003 and finally in 2004 he decided to travel to India to explore opportunities in Airline Industry. After starting his training, he was keen on pursuing Cargo courses too and as his visa is valid until October 2004, he decided to enroll for the IATA/FIATA Dangerous Goods examination in October from Mumbai and give his Cargo Introductory exam in April 2005 in Turkey. Umit was glad to know that IATA is not only globally recognized but also has Local Co-ordinator who conduct exam in Turkey even though currently there are no IATA/FIATA authorized training centres in Turkey.


Umit's journey to India has been extremely exciting and adventurous and we have published his first hand experience of travelling to India by road starting from Bursa into Iran, Pakistan and finally into India in the August 2004 issue of Opportunities Today - the career monthly published by RBCS group since 1971.

We are sure through these inspiring stories career aspirants will realize that for quality training it is worth travelling across boundaries. If Umit can travel form Turkey , many careers aspirants within India can avail of quality training at RBCS GROUP rather than availing of inferion training at a franchise centre or any institute. RBCS GROUP, though in training since 50 years do not run any franchise centres as RBCS GROUP believes in providing quality training for global success.

Subject: Hi there
Hi Subhash,

Its been a while since we connected. Have been checking you web site and saw my name there. I thought I should let you know that I have now moved up the ladder, as in promoted. I am now designated as as "OPERATIONS SERVICES CONTROLLER" with the OPERATIONS SERVICES DEPARTMENT with DNATA. Just to give you a clear picture of what I do now ......I am one of four Controllers and we are available 24/7 on a shift basis. We have the responsibility of heading a team of over 400 staff of our department which includes Aircraft Dispatchers, Load controllers, Documents section. Our team of dispatchers have the responsibility of releasing an aircraft at Dubai airport only when they are one hundred percent sure it is SAFE. They control all activities around the aircraft and deal with all areas to ensure that we as DNATA provide the required level of service. Our teams have various units and their staffworking under them, involved with the handling of an aircraft.


In short our dispatchers are the flight managers and make sure that every aircraft gets the required handling as per the Service Level Agreements with the Operators. If there is something to be done around an aircraft the dispatcher gets it going. SAFETY IS OUR FOREMOST PRIORITY. Do let me know if you are passing by Dubai. I should be in BOM in the first week of JUNE. There is lots to tell you on how Dubai Airport functions and has been growing. Like I say to all my colleagues : The only thing constant is Change. If we do not adapt to change we fade away. Learning is the life line of change.

"The training and guidance I got from IHCTM to complete my IATA/UFTAA Standard and Advanced Courses has enabled me to pursue a successful career in the Travel Industry. I thank RBCS for the after course support and guidance. The support and
encouragement also helped me to carry on my own study independently whilst appearing for my Advanced IATA/UFTAA
