HA NOI \u2013 The Swiss Executive Hospitality Training (Swiss EHT) program was officially introduced on 10th<\/sup>September 2024 in Hanoi. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This initiative is part of the Swiss Tourism for Sustainable Development in Vietnam (ST4SD) project funded by the Swiss Government to enhance the quality of local human resources and contribute to the sustainable development of Vietnam\u2019s tourism sector. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ST4SD project plays an important role in fostering collaboration between the \u00c9cole h\u00f4teli\u00e8re de Lausanne (EHL), the world\u2019s leading Swiss hospitality management school, with Vietnamese training institutes to develop this program. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Swiss EHT program is designed for mid- and high-level management staff as well as experienced professionals aiming to advance into managerial positions. The leaders, who participate in the program, will integrate sustainable tourism practices into their business operations and train entry-level employees on sustainability standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For 130 years, EHL has been a leading force in shaping the hospitality industry, nurturing generations of visionary leaders with unparalleled hospitality competencies. EHL’s unique approach, rooted in experiential learning, mirrors the renowned Swiss dual approach, seamlessly blending theory and practice with the development of both soft and hard skills<\/em>,\u201d Mr. Jean-Baptiste Berguerand, EHL\u2019s Senior Consultant, said. \u201cThis human-centric philosophy underpins the Swiss EHT program, laying a solid foundation for building a robust talent pipeline for Vietnam’s thriving hospitality and tourism industry<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
