The Shatec Institutes, formerly known as Singapore Hotel Association Training and Education Centre (Shatec), was set up in 1983 by the Singapore Hotel Association to equip Singapore's hospitality industry with a skilled workforce.

History[edit]

In 1982, Singapore Hotel Association planned to set up Shatec with École hôtelière de Lausanne to provide a diploma course in hotel management in Singapore.[2] Courses were expected to start in June 1983.[2]

In 2008, during its 25th anniversary celebration, Shatec announced that it would be rebranded as Shatec institutes.[3] Seven new institutes would be established, including an Institute for Hosting.[3]
