The Swiss Hospitality School, a higher school
Since 1996, the Hotel Management School of Geneva has been recognised as a School of Higher Education (ES) as an institution of public utility by the cantonal governments and the Swiss Confederation.
The cantonal authority participates actively in the final examinations and its name is recognised and protected by the Swiss Confederation.
«Signé by EHG », a unique hospitality training ecosystem in the world
The Hotel Management School’s ecosystem is made up of several entities,
- Restaurant Vieux-Bois,
- A catering service EHG Traiteur
Students are immersed in this ecosystem throughout their training and benefit from an exceptional professional experience.
These application institutions are managed by experienced professionals and offer a high quality of services to an international and demanding clientele.
Confronted with the reality of the field, students are gradually integrated into the various positions in service, reception, room, kitchen, bar, booking and housekeeping.
Promotion and patrons
Admittedly exciting but complex, the first steps in this profession are accompanied by a godfather or godmother of promotion.
The students of each new class (every 6 months) have the honour of being sponsored during their entire course by a great professional from the hotel and catering industry or from the Geneva business world, in order to encourage proximity and exchange.
The patrons ensures, among other things:
- A presentation conference at the beginning of the semester.
- A complete visit of the establishments.
- A meeting of the students with the executives of his or her company.
- An advisory and mentoring role throughout the students’ studies.
