The lessons are as varied and exciting as the course itself. During the first two semesters the student becomes familiar with the necessary basic knowledge, which can be put into practice in the traineeship lasting one year. In the last two semesters the knowledge obtained is deepened and
completed. The exchange with experts coming from the front of the tourism business is a great benefit for the students. The course starts in January and August.
