挪威郵輪控股有限公司公佈全新計劃
建立設備先進的員工培訓設施「挪威郵輪卓越中心」
吸引並培訓業內頂級人才 滿足人力需求及配合業務增長
香港,2019年4月2日 - 領先全球同業的挪威郵輪控股有限公司宣佈,將在菲律賓馬尼拉附近發展及興建設備先進的全新船員培訓設施「挪威郵輪卓越中心」。
「挪威郵輪卓越中心」佔地將達20萬平方呎,為集團現役及新聘船員就船上各服務範疇提供培訓。這座世界級培訓學校將有助學員全情投入培訓課程之中,減少船上培訓時間,以及進一步提升集團領先業界的服務水平。
中心設計模擬出真實的郵輪工作環境,讓學員切身感受船上生活,當中包括複製的客艙、廚房、賭場和全方位服務酒吧,另外亦設有安全及保安培訓區。該中心預計於2020年落成,每年將為多達8,000名船員提供年度培訓。
挪威郵輪控股有限公司總裁兼行政總裁Frank Del Rio 表示:「隨著集團計劃在2027年前添置11艘全新郵輪,持續拓展業務,挪威郵輪卓越中心將為船員提供專業培訓,以迎合集團對頂級人才的熾熱需求,藉此滿足賓客對於優質服務和頂尖海上假期的期望。我們的船隊目前於全球共有26艘郵輪,每年接載超過250萬名賓客,而這座全新設施將有助船員全情投入培訓過程,確保能繼續為賓客締造與別不同的度假體驗。」
集團已選定馬尼拉附近一片佔地7.2 英畝的土地用作興建「挪威郵輪卓越中心」,該項目預計於2019年動工,並於2020年下旬落成啟用。
目前,集團有約65%船員來自東南亞,預期未來數年對該區人才的需求將會進一步增加。菲律賓位處東南亞的中央位置,當地居民大多通曉多種語言,為集團建立培訓發展中心的理想地點。
