By the time the education programme is achieved, the successful candidates will have the renowned ‘Swiss Hospitality Touch’. SHL graduates have the reputation for being able to take immediate charge of hotel operations without going through any induction by their employers. The modular system focusing on practicality is exceptional and will be also applied on supporting the hospitality industry in additional modular education as an additional focus.
