A more vocationally route of the traditional hotel management diploma degree is also available and allows students to complete the same Hotel Management Diploma programme with a concentration in Events & Conventions Management in three years, allowing for more applied hotel operations and applied hotel management theory & practice together with specialised modules in Events & Conventions Management.
Whereas the management aspects of the programme are developed using highly advanced British theory and practice, the operational and vocational training aspects of the programme are based on the unique, 100-plus-year-old tradition of Swiss hospitality education.
At the end of the third year of the vocational programme, students receive the Swiss Higher Diploma in Hotel Management with a concentration in Events & Conventions Management.
