Swiss Education Group

The Swiss Education Group (SEG) is an alliance of three separate Swiss Hospitality Schools: the Swiss hotel management school, the Hotel Institute Montreux, and International Hotel and Tourism Training Institute.

The Six SEG Benefits

All of the hotel management schools under SEG follow these policies and regulations, named the "Six SEG Benefits"

*Swiss Owned - All SEG member schools are officially registered in Switzerland and are 100% Swiss owned, ensuring to students that their education is based upon Swiss Tradition and allowing them to attain the "Swiss Hospitality Touch" as well as making their qualification recognised worldwide.

*SEG Academic Quality Assurance - All SEG member schools are subject to stringent academic quality assurance that creates a high level of Swiss Education. All students are awarded a Swiss qualification in addition to a BA or MA degree from a leading British or American University. The object of the dual education and degree is to open doors to leading positions in the hospitality industry around the world.

*Sponsored Foundation Programme - As most of the courses in SEG schools are taught in English, SEG subsidises the major part of the cost for the SEG Foundation programme to improve their student's English level and prepare them for their first year of study.

*SEG Graduate Placement Service & Alumni - SEG maintains a strong link with their alumni and leading hotel chains in its Graduate Career Centre, making SEG graduates high in demand on the international job market. Students gain direct access to these organizations at recruitment events offered regularly in all member schools. The combined SEG Alumni, totaling in the thousands, is an additional source of employment opportunities for students.

*State of the Art Services & Facilities - Working with the notion that one's learning environment plays an important role in learning outcome, SEG schools offer a wide range of services including social care, medical assistance, student support centres, sport and leisure activities and more, all of which are regularly updated and developed.

*A Lower Investment - All of SEG member schools have adapted their study programmes to the needs of international students. Intensive programmes are held, offering up to thirty teaching hours a week, meaning degrees can be attain in less time and at lower cost as well as allowing the student to have an earlier start in their career.
