The Naramata Centre is planning to offer a Hospitality & Viticulture Program to local employers for their seasonal employees. The Hospitality & Viticulture Program will provide personal and professional development opportunities to young employees in a community setting and provide much needed staff accommodation to business partners in the community.

Naramata Centre is considering to offer 7 to 14 rooms between mid-April through October of 2023 for program participants. Each room has two beds and an ensuite with a shared kitchen and lounge.

Naramata Centre is working with TOTA, WorkBC, and the Okanagan Collage to develop a variety of training opportunities in addition to the Centre’s own personal development and community offerings.

Participants will get access to a flexible and tailored leadership development curriculum, which covers topics such as:

  • Work-life balance

  • Personal and professional development

  • Emotional intelligence

  • Boundary recognition

  • Diversity and inclusivity

  • Community engagement

  • Connection to the land

  • Spiritual life practices

The Centre is very open to working with local businesses, tourism associations and the viticulture sector to enhance these offerings.

If well-received this offer would continue in subsequent years.

Virtual Info Session

Naramata Centre is hosting a virtual info session November 9, 2022, at 10 AM.
