Journal Title: Advance Knowledge for Executives - Year 2022, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Objective: A post-graduate degree is an advantage to obtaining a higher position, although not a requirement. In line with this, this paper is of great importance as this study assesses the correlation between academic performance and work performance among the graduates of master’s in international hospitality management. Method: A descriptive-correlational method was used among the total population of 40 graduates (2016-2020) utilising an adapted instrument from Koopmans et al. (2014). all data were treated using a statistical software known as PASW version 26 to further interpret the result of the study using an alpha level of 0.01 and having the following statistical tools: frequency and percentage distribution, Weighted mean and rank, Analysis of Variance and Pearson R. Result: Based on the result of the study, graduates were on the average level in terms of academic performance as to the comprehensive exam, and only 12.5 per cent were recipients of the Award of Academic Excellence. On the other hand, with regards to work performance, it was confirmed that graduates always manage to excel in the task and contextual performance. Conclusion: It was revealed that there is no relationship between academic and work performance statistically. Recommendation & Implication: It was recommended to the MIHTM program to further enhance the curriculum by creating an activity that would boost the collaborative and relating skills among the students. Also, boosting confidence and self-esteem is part of the recommendation that was proposed based on the result of the study. Thus, the practical implication was implied.
