ueenstown Resort College (QRC) is unlike any hotel management college or tourism hospitality school in the world. QRC is New Zealand's first tertiary college dedicated to meeting the demands of an international tourist resort.

We offer a diverse range of world class courses and programmes including diplomas in Hospitality Management and Adventure Tourism Management, Internships, a range of English Language courses, leadership development programmes, Executive Education for professionals and short courses for visitors.

QRC's life began in 2001 with research, conceptual design, consultation and development. A site on the edge of the Queenstown Gardens was found in 2004 and building began just one year later. The College's five star facility was officially opened in March 2006 by the Minister of Tourism, Hon, Damien O'Connor.

It is wholly New Zealand owned and operated. The Board of Directors is chaired by former Otago University vice-chancellor, Eion Edgar, and is made up of chief executive Jan Fitz-Gerald, Tony Hill and Mark Taylor. All four live and work in Queenstown and have more than 50 combined years of experience in public tertiary education.

Unlike other hotel management schools and colleges, QRC positions itself as a pathway college offering two formal diploma programmes in Hospitality Management and Adventure Tourism Management. Both have Degree options available through our partners the International College of Management, Sydney (ICMS), Australia, the César Ritz Colleges, Switzerland and Thompson Rivers University, Canada.

Our programmes are critiqued by Advisory Boards. These key industry people were consulted during the initial research phase and will continue to ensure their relevancy now and in the future.
