After a period of in-depth analysis which began at the end of January 2013 and focused on both the strategic and economic aspects of this investment, EHL is now completing its acquisition of 75% of the SSTH. hotelleriesuisse, the umbrella organisation of the Swiss hotel industry, holds, alongside EHL a minority stake in the capital of the School, which is located in the heart of the Canton of Graubünden.
A unique model in the world of hospitality education
This acquisition will enable EHL and hotelleriesuisse to integrate the entire vocational training and education programme, from the apprenticeship to the Bachelor HES, thus affording a unique opportunity for students enrolling at the SSTH.
This "academic progression" model will offer young people holding a Federal Certificate of Ability (CFC) the possibility of continuing a higher education course at the SSTH in Passugg and then of taking a Bachelor HES degree awarded by the University of Applied Sciences Western Switzerland (HES-SO)
