Why Hospitality Skills Matter?

    What if the skills that make a great hospitality professional are exactly the skills the world needs most?

    Why Hospitality Skills Matter? is an original video series that explores what sets EHL apart from other business schools, not just in what we teach, but in how we develop people. Each episode takes a different angle on a central belief: that hospitality education builds something deeper than technical knowledge.

    Season 1 opened the conversation with Dr. Achim Schmitt, Dean of EHL Hospitality Business School, examining how EHL's practical arts curriculum goes far beyond service training, cultivating the mindset, empathy, and adaptability that tomorrow's managers will need in any industry.

    Season 2 goes backstage. Through the lens of two student committees (Fête Universelle and Millésime), we witness firsthand the soft skills EHL students develop through real-world event organization: leadership under pressure, cross-cultural teamwork, creative problem-solving, and the art of delivering exceptional experiences from scratch.

    Two seasons. Four episodes. One question that keeps getting richer the more you explore it.

    Beyond the Degree

    Every degree has a beginning and an end. But what happens in between is what truly shapes you.

    Beyond the Degree follows EHL students through the experiences that define their journey, from their first steps on campus to the day they graduate. Inside the classroom and beyond it, the series captures the challenges, discoveries, relationships, and real-world experiences that contribute to their transformation along the way.

    The first episode takes us back to where it all begins: the AP year. From the excitement of Intro Week and moving into a new home to their first practical and theoretical classes, we experience these defining first moments through the students themselves.

    One journey. Years of experiences. A transformation that goes far beyond the degree.
