Can you turn a hotel stay into an unforgettable experience? Do you combine excellent service, sustainability and profit maximisation? If you want to make a difference, this programme is for you!

In hospitality, creating an experience for the guest is all important. How do you respond to the individualisation of society and how do you deal with an increasingly critical customer? You will learn in our Hotel Management programme. After your graduation you will be ready to go the extra mile with your professionalism, creativity and innovative ideas.

In four years, you will learn how to develop to an all-round Hotel Manager. Where will you find your dream job? Think big, think anywhere, because our students work all over the world. But first things first. You do need to develop, in order to get there. We will help you learn the things you need to know, improve your skills and offer you training on-the-job. With our programme, we will provide you with all you need to get your future job!

You will benefit from the intensive 3-year programme in two respects: you gain one year in time, and save one year of tuition fees.

• after vwo (pre-university) or after another propaedeutic year (economic programme): You will start in year 2 and also receive basic knowledge and skills from the propaedeutic phase.
• taylor-made track for 'havo' graduates: You will start your course of study at De Rooi Pannen (mbo level) and you will proceed at Breda University of Applied Sciences in year 2 of the regular 4-year programme.

After your graduation in Hotel Management you can decide whether to find a job or carry on studying - at masters level.

After completing your graduation assignment, you will be equipped to enter a variety of hospitality-related careers, at home or abroad. Alternatively, you might take up positions at other types of companies; conference venues, holiday resorts, wholesalers to the hotel and catering trade, or consultancy agencies.
