Stabroek Business has learnt that the 80-year-old Carnegie School of Home Economics (CSHE) is set to undergo a major makeover that will result in its transformation into Guyana’s first ever hospitality institute, possibly within the next three years.
During an interview on Tuesday, Chairman of the school’s Board of Directors John Seeram and its Principal Penelope Harris told this newspaper that plans are already being conceptualised to implement a recommendation contained in a study undertaken by the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) in 2012 to transform the institution into a training facility that will more adequately respond to the needs of the sectors which it serves.
Stabroek Business understands that the transformation exercise envisages the re-siting of the institution from its present D’Urban and High streets location.
