To supply for the Innholders Scholarship, applicants must:
- Be currently employed in the UK hospitality industry working in a hotel or club.
- Discuss their intention to apply for a scholarship with their employer. The employer should endorse the submission and agree to the applicant be given time off to attend the relevant course if successful.
- Should not have any immediate plans to work outside the UK as this would result in the cancellation of a course
- Applications are welcome from previous delegates of the Master Innholders Aspiring Leaders Diploma four or more years after graduation.
Please note only one applicant per property will be accepted.
An assessment panel will review all submissions and draw up a shortlist of applicants who will be invited to attend an interview undertaken by a panel in the autumn in London.
The scholarships are awarded immediately following the interviews for courses being offered in the next year. Successful applicants are required to join the St Julian Scholars alumni following completion of their course.
Graduates of the Innholders Scholarship are invited to join the St Julian Scholars. Managed by an Executive Committee, the St Julian Scholars focuses on five key areas:
- Events
- Giving back
- Membership engagement
- Stakeholders
- Communication
Each member of the St Julian Scholars Executive Committee sits on one of the above working groups and in addition, general alumni members are encouraged to take an active role in these groups.
Cranfield's Knowledge Hub is available for St. Julian Scholars to use and is updated regularly with thought leadership articles, videos, podcasts and webinars.
