Finally, the study clarifies a proposed model that reflects the customer requirements in hotel higher education institutions.
The results revealed that human resource managers perceived “the desire to learn” as the most important skills required for graduates, while educators and students perceived “Total Quality Management” as the most important skills, and the graduates perceived “Communication” as the most important skills. Also, managers, educators, students, and graduates perceived that human resource, operating skills and personal skills are very important for the graduates. Conceptual skills have a medium level of importance as perceived by educators, students and graduates, but managers perceived that these skills are not important.
