EHL Junior Academy – Lausanne – Hospitality Business & Innovation 2019
Junior Academy was a great introduction to the world of EHL! It was both educational and fun and gave me such a good idea of what life at EHL is really like. Before attending I wasn’t sure I’d fit in and feel at home, but after Junior Academy I knew it was the place for me! Two years later I’m still in contact with my friends there, and still think of the memories we made. I can’t imagine a better way to spend your summer!

EHL Junior Academy – Lausanne – Hospitality Business & Innovation 2018
My name is Alexandra Pikiner and I was born and raised in the Bay Area in California. I am currently in my second year of the Bachelor program at EHL. I attended the summer academy in the summer of 2018 to get a better understanding of what to expect if I went to EHL. It was my first time in Switzerland, and unforgettable. I was with students from all over the world who were my age and going through the same life lessons as me.
The Summer Academy session which stood out the most to me was the one about what I could do with a hospitality degree. I thought it was only about working in hotels, but quickly realized there was so much more to do. I could go into finance, marketing, work at an airline, amusement park, or any job that required talking to people. However, the most interesting activity, was when I was able to prepare an apricot flambé!
This week showed me that even though I was 5,000 miles away from home, I wasn’t alone. It prepared me for the fact that living in Switzerland could be fun, the possibilities and opportunities at EHL are endless, and that I am a perfect match for this school.

EHL Digital Academy – Online – Hospitality in a digital world 2021
I thoroughly enjoyed the Digital Junior Academy this summer! The teachers were very kind and interesting. It was a diverse and in-depth course, ranging from cooking to getting an introduction to hospitality management, learning about social media, and working with a team to start a hotel concept from scratch. The pastry chef was very friendly and even without any cooking experience, it was very easy to follow his instructions. I would highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to discover EHL, hospitality management and much more. A big thank you to all the team for making my time with EHL so memorable!

I chose the summer academy because it was a great opportunity to discover what the EHL university experience would be like. Meeting students from different nationalities really exposed me to the multicultural environment that EHL has. My favorite part of the week was having different types of classes and activities, ranging from being hands-on and cooking in the kitchen, to learning and discovering new concepts of hospitality in a classroom.

EHL Junior Academy – Passugg – Traditional Hospitality 2020
During the few days at EHL Campus Passugg I learned that studying hospitality is not as easy as I thought, it’s much more than just learning how to decorate chocolates. The lectures and activities made me want to learn so much more about hospitality. In fact, I am now convinced I want to study hospitality and maybe one day, work in the hospitality industry.

My son signed up to the summer academy. It was one of the best things he has done. He embraced it and blossomed – finding a ‘north star’ to direct his career search. The Academy model was perfectly balanced; enough exposure to hospitality – strategic and tactical, from concept to coffee making! Fun and yet the highest standards realized. Teachers were passionate and inspirational – an excellent indication of what is to come with the bachelor program. The engagement was exceptional. As a parent I could not have asked for more – brilliant.

I signed up for the Junior Academy as the cooking session and the various lectures caught my attention. My favourite activity was working on the hotel brand project with my teammates. My teammates were all really friendly and the group work was the highlight of my Junior Academy experience.

For me, the Digital Junior Academy was not only a process of enriching self-knowledge, but also a process of understanding different cultures from different countries and regions. We were able to improve our creativity, teamwork, communication skills, leadership and practical skills in a short period of time.
