The course is focused on providing you with as much practical exercises as possible. We feel that it is vital
for you to learn about the technical service aspect and at the same time it is equally important to learn about
the essence of “hospitality”. Understanding how a guest feels, whilst you provide service is essential and
therefore we have build in multiple visits to partners.
