A Pathway to Leadership in the Hospitality Industry
Discover internships at the École Hôtelière Genève, an essential part of your training and future career in the hotel and restaurant industry. Our internship programs are designed to offer you a rich and varied professional experience, preparing you to become a leader in this dynamic sector.
The first course
Your first internship takes place in Switzerland, where you'll have the opportunity to put the theory you've learned in the classroom into practice. It's here that you'll learn the basics of hospitality, discovering the nuts and bolts of the business and immersing yourself in the quality standards that will make you a better manager in the future. This internship is a crucial step in understanding the essence of service and hospitality, skills that are fundamental to success in this field.
The second course
During your second internship, you'll have the chance to travel abroad for an international experience. This is the perfect opportunity to discover new countries, immerse yourself in different cultures and broaden your professional horizons. This enriching experience will enable you to develop a global understanding of the industry and adapt to multicultural environments, a valuable asset for your career.
The third stage
Your third and final internship is designed to prepare you for successful entry into management roles. It's the culmination of your time at EHG, where you'll put into practice everything you've learned, while developing the skills needed to take on leadership responsibilities. This final internship is the best preparation for a smooth transition to a high-level career.
Through these internships, the École Hôtelière Genève offers you not only practical training but also invaluable experience that will set you apart as a professional in the hotel and restaurant industry.
