On October 30, at the Faculty of Economics of the Oles Honchar Dnipro National University, a meeting was held with Paolo Brescia, the president of the Association of Mediterranean Chefs (UCM Italy), who presented students with opportunities to participate in the EuroEst international project.
The EuroEst project, which is spoken about by Paolo Brescia, is implemented with the financial support of the U.C.M. Association, Italy and its partners. It offers students a unique opportunity for internships in leading hotels and restaurants in Italy. The goal of the project is to help young people who want to start a career in the hotel and restaurant industry to gain valuable practical experience, professional training and inspiration, while learning about the culture and gastronomic traditions of the Mediterranean. Project participants will receive a stipend during their internship, which makes participation even more attractive.
Professor Tetyana Grynko, dean of the Faculty of Economics, spoke with sincere words of congratulation, who thanked Paolo Brescia and the representatives of the Association for the development of the partnership, which has been opening real paths to an international career for students of DNU for several years in a row.
During the meeting, the participants learned about the advantages of the EuroEst program, including:
• free study of the Italian language;
• participation in 10 practical master classes on cooking traditional Italian dishes;
• internship during the summer holidays in prestigious hotels and restaurants;
• obtaining an international certificate recognized by employers in Europe;

A special moment was the ceremonial presentation of certificates of the I and III levels of qualification to students of specialty 241 Hotel and restaurant business Evelina Gashko, Anastasia Digtyarenko and specialty 242 Tourism to Anna Boyeva, who have already completed an internship in Italy.
