Description of the Host Property:
The Florida Keys’ miles of narrow islands at the confluence of two oceans have long enticed dreamers, adventurers, and those seeking to escape the day-to-day. At Oceans Edge, they have revived the days when the Keys felt like the edge of the Earth by crafting the perfect guest experience on Stock Island; one that pairs easy access to Key West’s culture and activities with a private and restful setting.
Description of the Training:
Experience the Food and Beverage Department in a luxury resort environment through a J-1 Internship at the Oceans Edge Key West Resort & Marina. During the internship, you will experience most areas of the food and beverage department through rotations in the different outlets on property. The program is designed to give you the experience needed to excel in the hospitality industry when you return home.
ITN & ODYSSEY All-Inclusive Program:
Unlike most J-1 Program providers, a regional ITN representative will guide you through a streamlined registration process, thanks to ITN and ODYSSEY’s all-inclusive approach. ITN and ODYSSEY will be on hand to provide you with the very best personalized service from the time that you arrive in the United States until your departure from the United States upon completion of your program.
