INDEX
TRAINING SCHEDULE
Marriott was founded by John Willard Marriott in 1927 when he and his wife, Alice
Sheets Marriott, opened a root beer stand in Washington, D.C. As a Mormon missionary
in the humid summers in Washington, D.C., Marriott was convinced that what residents
of the city needed was a place to get a cool drink. The Marriotts later expanded their
enterprise into a chain of Hot Shoppes restaurants and the company went public in 1953
as Hot Shoppes, Inc.The company opened its first hotel, the Twin Bridges Marriott Motor
Hotel, in Arlington, Virginia, in 1957. Their second hotel, the Key Bridge Marriott in the
Rosslyn neighborhood of the same city, is Marriott International’s longest continuously
operating hotel, and celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2009. Their son, J. W. (Bill)
Marriott, Jr., led the company to spectacular worldwide growth during his more than 50-
year career. In March 2012, at age 80, he turned the CEO responsibilities over to Arne
Sorenson, while he assumed the title of Executive Chairman. Hot Shoppes, Inc. was
renamed the Marriott Corporation in 1967.
Marriott International
Marriott International was formed in 1993 when the Marriott Corporation split into two
companies, Marriott International and Host Marriott Corporation. In 1995, Marriott was
the first hotel company worldwide to offer guests the option to book reservations online,
via the company's implementation of MARSHA (Marriott's Automatic Reservation
System for Hotel Accommodations).In April 1995, Marriott International acquired a 49%
interest in Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company LLC. Marriott International believed that it could
increase sales and profit margins for The Ritz-Carlton, a troubled chain with a significant
number of properties either losing money or barely breaking even. The cost to Marriott
was estimated to have been about $200 million in cash and assumed debt. The next year,
Marriott spent $331 million to take over The Ritz-Carlton, Atlanta and buy a majority
interest in two properties owned by William Johnson, a real estate developer who had
purchased The Ritz-Carlton, Boston in 1983 and expanded his Ritz-Carlton holdings over
the next twenty years.The Ritz-Carlton began expansion into the lucrative timeshare
market and undertook other new initiatives made financially possible by the deep pockets
of Marriott, which also lent its own in-house expertise in certain areas. There were other
benefits for Ritz-Carlton flowing from its relationship with Marriott, such as being able to
take advantage of the parent company's reservation system and buying power. The
partnership was solidified in 1998 when Marriott acquired a majority ownership of The
Ritz-Carlton. Today, there are 81 Ritz-Carlton properties around the world.
Reconstructing
The Marriott World Trade Center was destroyed during the September 11, 2001, attacks.
In 2002 Marriott International began a major restructuring by spinning off many Senior
Living Services Communities (which is now part of Sunrise Senior Living) and Marriott
Distribution Services, so that it could focus on hotel ownership and management. The
changes were completed in 2003.Marriott International owned Ramada International
Hotels & Resorts until its sale on September 15, 2004 to Cendant. In 2005, Marriott
International and Marriott Vacation Club International comprised two of the 53 entities
that contributed the maximum of $250,000 to the second inauguration of President
George W. Bush. On July 19, 2006, Marriott announced that all lodging buildings it
operated in the United States and Canada would become non-smoking beginning
September 2006. "The new policy includes all guest rooms, restaurants, lounges, meeting
rooms, public space and employee work areas." San Diego Marriott Marquis & Marina,
one of the highest revenue-generating Marriotts in the United States There were
bombings at the Islamabad Marriott in 2008 and at the Jakarta Marriott in 2009.
On November 11, 2010, Marriott announced plans to add over 600 hotel properties by
2015. The bulk of the additions will be in emerging markets: India, where it plans to have
100 hotel properties, China, and Southeast Asia.On January 21, 2011, Marriott said that
pornography would not be included in the entertainment offered at new hotels, which will
use an Internet-based video on demand system.On December 13, 2011, J.W. Marriott, Jr.
announced he would be stepping down as CEO of the company, while assuming the role
of executive chairman. It was announced that Arne Sorenson would be taking over as
CEO as of March 2012.U.S. Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney released his
2011 federal income taxes on

At the Marriott hotelkitchen work and chefs are the heart of the hotel. Guests who patronize
the Marriott hotel would visit them for various reasons, for locality, comfort, pricing and
even for the food that is served and presented to them. Also there are some who visit for the
purpose of having a meal or snack. Whatever the case maybe, the kitchen plays an important
role for the existence and sustenance of the hotel. Working in the Marriott hotel kitchen was
interesting, tiring, challenging and even exciting. With all the modern technology and
gadgetry, these kitchens have turned out be somewhat high tech and more convenient. The
kitchens are so well equipped and maintained, with freezer rooms, to separate kitchens for
the preparation of cakes, bread and pastry. With all the novel stoves, ovens and microwaves
it was indeed a fantastic place to work in and a wonderful experience. The hotel has an
Executive Chef and working under him there are different categories of chefs. They are Chef
de Cuisine, Chef de Partie, Demi Chef, Commis Chef, Sous Chef etc. The duties of these
chefs will vary from one to another. The Executive Chef or the Head Chef oversees and
supervises the department, and will instruct them accordingly as to what the duties for the
day are. They are also responsible in all matters pertaining to the department, such as leave,
attending to personal issues, attending board meetings and scheduling the work to each staff
member. They are expected to work on shift basis as a hotel function 24-7. Not only
preparation, the presentation of the food is also equally important. An expected
attribute of a chef is creativity and novelty. The hotel is continuously trying to
improvise ways and means to allure guest to their hotel by having food fares and
promotions. Good communication skills are important for the success of the hotel’s
mission. While constant training of the staff is done by the Executive Chefs, they are
also expected at times to speak to guests and attend to some special needs. Cleanliness
and good hygiene is maintained at all times, it is said that the standard of the hotel
could be judged by its kitchen.

CONCLUSION
When I started my training I saw the reality of hospitality I got the chance to observe it
live. The training was very good and knowledgeable. Every day was new and I learnt
daily new things in the hotel. The hotel and hotel staff were very cooperative. They all
always helped me. My experience was highly enriching and educative one as I went on
from one department to another and met and got the opportunity to train under several
highly respected senior professionals. I learned that every individual is different and that
everyone has something unique to offer. I learned that every job has its nuances and its
value and that no job is superior to the other. I learnt that one needs to constantly improve
and improvise. I learned that it is the beginning of a long road ahead. Full of challenges.
But I know that I will be able to run along because I have my foundations firmly built in.
It is here that I got the opportunity to continuously introspect and improve as a budding
professional and as a human being. I will always look back at the time spent here with
fondness and with pride.
I thank all the people who have helped me in several different ways that will go a long
way in facilitating the commencement of a wonderful journey.
