understands that Tourism and Hotel (Hospitality)
and also the Business Service sector are very
vital for the development of Ethiopia. Today,
the hospitality industry is known and practiced
as a vital sector for economic growth and
development in many countries. Without going
very far, our neighboring African countries like
Kenya, Tanzania and Egypt are benefiting a lot
from the industry. On the other hand, Ethiopia,
a country with immense natural and socio –
cultural resources has not benefited much out of
its wealth. Although there can be a number of
reasons for this, the lack of trained &
competent man power in the field is considered
to be as one of the major problems. Addressing
this issue has been the central objective of
Lion Ethiopia Tourism, Hotel & Business College.
It has trained young personnel in the field to
contribute its part to the effort being made at
national level in many ways. Now, it aims at
raising its training programs in addition to
existing fields of education to the level that
contributes to the need for more trained
professionals to the developing economic sectors
in the country.
