Starkey International has reached agreements with China’s largest household service organization, China Home Services Association, and Gaoyang Vocational Education Development Center which is working with top universities to provide Starkey education and curriculum throughout China. This would allow Starkey International to engage in the training and education of Chinese household service professionals through mutual cooperation. Gaoyang center was established in 2003 and was one of the earliest entities that helped introduce international programs into China.
These efforts were made possible by Starkey International and Gaoyang’s vision for quality service in China. Working with Starkey, Gaoyang will be launching training programs for Butlers, Housekeepers and other related household service specialties by mid 2013.
For more information, please contact Starkey International.
Mary,
Just a note of appreciation to you for hosting the Denver Professional Mens Club for our meeting in September!
Time slipped away from me however you have been in my thoughts as I think it is really grand of you to host us at your wonderful home and business. Your staff as always were great and I’ve attached a photo of them that wonderful night.
Have a great holiday season, 2012 has slipped by so very fast but as they say the older people become the quicker time flies by due to our mind’s reference of time.

The Denver Professional Mens Club held their annual meeting at The Starkey Institute last Saturday, January 21, 2012. Seven or eight of Denver’s great professional men enjoyed a convivial evening of business mixed with pleasure while enjoying Chef Althoff’s customized culinary creations and delectable buffet with a good stiff drink! Mrs. Starkey welcomed the group, shared a little of the Mansion’s 110 year history. She invited these special guests to join with their friends or charities and choose the perfect date to experience one of Starkey’s prestigious formal dinners.
The Denver Woman’s Press Club was invited to tour Starkey’s 1901 Historic Mansion last week, still decked in its Christmas apparel. Starkey has been located across the street since the Press Club was built in 1916. Mrs. Starkey was recently invited to join this most interesting group of women writers as she will have forthcoming new publications to share with the service industry and many other followers.
Speaking of writing and words; did you know that in 1981, Mrs. Starkey while sitting with her dictionary, found the phrase “household manager” in a definition and immediately knew it would replace the out- dated old guard title of Majordomo? She began to use the phrase in her advertisements and history was made! “Household Manager” is now an official Department of Labor employment title and Starkey is now celebrating their 125 class. Starkey International has now educated over 1000 Certified Household Managers and placed them world-wide!
Mrs. Starkey was recently on Pro Sports Wives Radio.
