Our History
The Council of Hotel and Restaurant Educators of the Philippines was established in 1989 by a group of Hotel and Restaurant Administration faculty members with Dr. Ignacio Pablo elected as founding president. The other members were Olga Santos, Milagros Lim, Gloria Siy, Austin Dy, Wilhelmina Baylon, Noemi Cancio, Adela Jamorabo, Sylvia Ama, Norma Compuesto, Evangeline Timbang and Antonia Vialu. The group felt that with the growing needs of the HRA program, there was need to form a professional organization that would ensure the quality of program offerings by addressing needs of educators and helping each other meet quality standards. In 1991, the COHREP filed its SEC registration and was formally recognized in 1992.
