Preparing graduates to meet the needs of a demanding industry
We know and understand which skills you require from our students and graduates. Further to a global survey conducted by Laureate Hospitality Education among hospitality hiring managers, a list of soft skills* emerged as the most important to the success of young hospitality graduates. We are constantly ensuring that our curricula, teaching methodology and student life style fully develop these skills in order to prepare graduates to be immediately effective in their new roles and equipped to become tomorrow's industry leaders.  

 

Accreditation and recognition
In order to maintain the highest possible educational standards, our institutions have international accreditation, recognition, quality assurance certifications and professional memberships with various prestigious organizations worldwide.

 

Swiss style model of education
All of our schools follow a Swiss Hospitality Education Model. This model, originally conceived in partnership with "Hôtelleriesuisse" in Switzerland, balances theoretical classes with craft-based learning on campus in service, food and beverage, rooms division, providing students with a range of skills. Depending on the school and program, the craft-based learning component ranges from 8 to 20 weeks, offering students with a range of skills. Students learn how to amplify these skills in active real work settings, completing a minimum of one year of work experience in our degree before graduation.

 

Breadth of programs
Our network of eight leading hospitality management schools located in five different countries has a vast variety of programs in the fields of hotel, resort, even, sport and entertainment management. Most of our schools offer a wide array of undergraduate, postgraduate and graduate studies to a diverse international student body. To ensure that all our programs meet the fast evolution of the industry, each school has an advisory board or equivalent composed of hospitality professionals who review our programs and make sure they are up-to-date and meet the latest industry trends.

 

Alumni and Industry Relations
Our institutions maintain active relationships with more than 19,000 alumni worldwide through each school's association. With many of them occupying diverse and important positions within the hospitality and service industry, they are perfect ambassadors of our institutions. We also strive to continue expanding a wide network of hospitality leaders and professionals who are a constant source of inspiration for developing our curricula and recruiting our students and graduates.
