Hotel Management Diploma at the Institute of Tourism and Hospitality
I chose to study here because the school is reputable and offers the best quality when it comes to hotel and tourism management. This course is highly sought after at home in Mauritius and this gives me a higher chance to succeed in my career. The school has networks for internships and job training programs with affluent and luxurious hotels In and around Switzerland. the internships are paid and i can make an extra income as a student. Although the tuition and accommodation are high, it is already definitely paying off, it is an investment I would recommend other students to take.
Not satisfied with the program. Too much unnecessary subjects. Too much things to learn and not enough classes (studying by ourselves)
