I WANT TO BE CREATIVE‘‘

‘‘

THAT’S GOOD NEWS! AT VATEL, EVERYONE IS ACTIVE

GIVE FREE REIN TO YOUR IMAGINATIONSo, right from year one, you test roles and situations in real-life conditions facing actual customers, supervised by your teachers. Each experimental session includes a segment devoted to experience sharing, and encourages creativity. You analyze, propose, and apply… Which is better than listening to a teacher for hours, don’t you think?

50% OF TEACHING IS DEVOTED TO EXPERIMENTATION “You never understand so well as when you experiment yourself!” This precept underpins Vatel’s teaching philosophy. And it’s more than words: it translates tangibly into experimentation in our practical training facilities, alternating with theoretical classes. Vatel café and restaurant are integrated into our school and they serve real customers.

I WANT TO BE AN ENTREPRENEUR‘‘

‘‘

TO BECOME EVEN MORE CREATIVE, AND LEARN TO BE AN ENTREPRENEURStoring up knowledge is good, but using it to make plans is better. Which is why Vatel has put in place innovative, fun and effective learning methods based on acting out scenarios and group work. Our belief? To make progress, you must face reality.

ORGANIZE A GALA DINNERAt Vatel Thailand our students organize real events both at the school and outside for other businesses. Our hands-on-approach includes a Gala Dinner project with the rest of your group from the planning stage until the final execution of the event itself with the paying public. Ready to impress?

CONCRETE PROBLEM-SOLVINGA tourism industry professional proposes work on a specific issue. To address the company’s problem, you will present solutions – well-argued solutions, of course! And who knows, maybe your ideas will take root in “real life”…

‘I don’t think that education should only give you academic knowledge. It should grow you as a person, in different areas of your life, and at Vatel, I grew as a person because of the exposure I received on the internships provided’.

Owner Chann Bangkok Noi hotel & Arch Café Bakgkok

‘When I was little, I dreamed of being a businessman... But I had no idea how to go about it! There was no other choice than Vatel for me as it allowed me to be more creative and provided me with the right skills to open my own hotel, Chann Bangkok Noi. Vatel encouraged my dream and gave me the resources to fly on my own. Believe in your dream, never give up. Vatel is the right place to lead you towards success!’

CirVath, Vatel’s research centre, is an incubator of ideas, projects and thinking that teachers and students are invited to take part in beyond borders. Every year, CirVath publishes their research in the Les Cahiers Internationaux du Tourisme journal and disseminates it worldwide.

TEACHERS WHO DO FAR MORE THAN TEACHWhether their background is academic or business, they use interactive methods that enable you to develop your ability to be analytical, creative and take action. Based on interacting, sharing and thinking, their teaching philosophy is closer to coaching than to conventional teaching.

AND WHAT ABOUT NEW TECHNOLOGY?Artificial intelligence, data, revenue management – new technology is integral to the hospitality and tourism industry. And proficiency in them is therefore essential. But knowing how to harness them will make you a creative, initiative-generating professional. Practical, isn’t it!
