The National Skills Academy for Hospitality (NSAH) has extended its Disney Institute programme for 2010.

Following the initial Disney Institute programme in London last year, the NSAH has launched an enhanced package for 2010, delivering year-round Disney Institute leadership and management training for the sector.

The centrepiece of the initiative will again be the five-day seminar programme, held at the Millennium Gloucester Hotel in London from 13 to 17 September, with three distinct courses on offer.

NSAH is presenting a series of 90-minute Disney Institute WebCasts, broadcast live over the internet from Orlando, direct to subscribing companies' head offices, training venues or even individual outlets.

New for 2010 is a bespoke, executive trip to Disney Institute head offices in Orlando. The three-day training programme will be limited to 20 places and includes behind the scenes tours in the "live laboratory" of the Disney theme parks.

David McHattie, the NSAH's chief executive, said: "Our objective is to seek out and promote excellence in training. Disney Institute is a world-class trainer used by top companies internationally to build leadership, service and business skills.

"So, we are extremely excited by this outstanding opportunity for the hospitality sector to experience and learn from one of the world's most respected brands - and now on three fronts."
