3. Why should I do Hotel Management from Switzerland? What are the specific advantages?

Switzerland is highly respected for its Hospitality Industry. Hospitality education in Switzerland blends training in the practice of a proud tradition with the study of contemporary management principles. Since the students are trained 4-6 months in some of the best Swiss hotels, they are ready to start their career in fast track.

Most of the schools are totally integrated into a Hotel and provides students with a unique real-life environment. From our pas experience, there is a huge demand for Swiss educated and trained personnel all over the globe.

This is not the case with hotel management schools in other countries. Often hospitality management degrees are offered at the larger universities. These programs generally lack the professional component and practical training. In other countries one can find excellent hotel schools preparing students to become chefs, headwaiters and rooms division managers. Those schools lack the management and academic side.

4. Will I get paid for the Internship/Training program?

Yes. By law, Swiss employers are required to remunerate students at prevailing industry training rates. The compensation varies from Hotel to Hotel. The approximate gross salary per month is from 2,050 to 2,450 Swiss Francs. Deductions for food, accommodation, tax & insurance are about 1,000 Swiss Francs.

5. Can I do Internship overseas?

Some of the schools allow Internship overseas (outside Switzerland). Please check with the school for more details on this.

8. What is ASEH?

The Swiss Hotel Schools Association (ASEH) was founded in 1986 with the aim of protecting the good image of the existing, traditional hotel schools. All these schools taught their programs in German or French. It was only in 1980 that the first English teaching schools opened their doors and challenged the established schools. At present ASEH groups Switzerland's 12 leading hotel management schools, teaching their programs in English, French and German.

Member Schools include the official schools of the Swiss Hotel Association, Gastrosuisse, and the Swiss Union of Hotel Employees. The Association welcomes hotel management schools located in Switzerland who meet and abide by the strict standards of quality outlined in its bylaws.

To become a member of ASEH, every school applying has to undergo very strict procedures for accreditation. High quality educational and professional standards are maintained, thereby ensuring an exceptional education in the hotel trade for each of its students.
