- 8. Is there an official hotelschool ranking in Switzerland? Simple answer: NO there is none – Many believe ASEH is the official ranking. ASEH is only a member club with no officially recognized validation – Nor any other self made ranking – Nor rankings indicated through portals like swissuniversityhandbook or topuniversities, they are all just marketing channels – Many schools try selling themselves as University, NONE of them is (Except Lausanne EHL) – But still there are rather big differences in the reputation of schools at international level. Larger groups and wellknown names are making a difference for future employers

CHECK carefully Best you ask the schools (not the agents) directly – Will I get the final diploma of the acreditting partner as a paper in hand, ask for a sample – Ask for the concrete numbers of student origins. If they refuse don’t trust them. Few have a ballanced studentbody – Ask if you will receive a diploma at the end of each stage – Ask for the details (CVs) of the current faculty (not the visiting ones) – Check on social media on postings from current students (not the corporate postings from internal marketing) – Ask for concrete numbers of their career services (how many people are working there) – Visit the school for one day and get your own feeling, if you can’t go send somebody else – Contact alumnis and ask them, locate those through social media. (Marketing will always select their ambassadors cleverly, no value then) – Check the comparison Matrix on all Luzern based school on the next slide

- Luzern is a vibrant lakeside city at the heart of Switzerland It offers history, culture, modern facilities & opportunities for artistic and sporting activities It is one of the most beautiful and scenic regions of Switzerland Lucerne city is free WIFI Why study in Lucerne Study in Lucerne, not only a HUB for tourism! Every day thousands of tourists are strolling around beautiful Lucerne, sipping coffee after extensive shopping or after a nice walk along Lake Lucerne’s shoreline. Lucerne has established a reputation as a worldwide tourism hub and its monuments such as the modern KKL building and famous wooden medieval Chapel bridge are well known all over the world. Lucerne, like no other city really represents the “chocolate side” of Switzerland. Lucerne is perhaps less known for its educational capacity, but this is for sure to change over the next years. Lucerne is not only a great place for a Swiss holiday experience, but also perfect for any international student who wants to be well prepared for an ever changing global economy. Lucerne - a beautiful lively city embedded in a dreamlike natural environment, traditional yet contemporary - it is a fun place for young people to enjoy a fresh drink at any of the restaurants along the lake and river. At the same time, they can work on their projects by accessing the internet through Lucerne’s unique and free wireless city Internet. Because of the many tourists, it is rather easy to communicate almost anywhere in town since most locals are able to speak at least some basic English. Being at the true heart of Europe, Lucerne is built as an ideal starting point for other European cities, a 5-hour train-trip brings you to Paris, a flight ticket with any budget airline can bring you to London for as low as 30 US$. Access to various traditional as well as extreme-sports like mountain biking, sailing, skiing, all kind of water-sports and more ensures that not only the brainwaves are kept active. You may think that the German language may be a problem for your studies, but actually more and more international schools are available in the Lucerne area and English has become an important second language even in the local primary schools where it is replacing French. Our students in some cases can join some intensive English language courses to prepare them for further studies. Lucerne is within the German speaking part of Switzerland, most of the other Hotel Management Schools on a similar top quality level are placed in the French parts of Switzerland. This results in a very positive effect for our students related to available top placement during their Swiss paid work experience. From a total of 5000 Hotels in Switzerland are more than 4000 based in the German speaking part. International schools in Lucerne attract not only students but also renowned international professors who always love to come to Switzerland for educational assignments and guest lecturing. If all the above reasons are not enough to send your beloved ones to study here in Lucerne, consider the fact that Lucerne is one of the safest places in the world. A 2012 survey from the largest daily newspaper, ranked Lucerne First as the cleanest, as well as the safest city with the highest level in social care among all other Swiss cities. If you wish to ensure the best access to a competitive and global education in a safe and beautiful environment, don’t look further.
