In addition to teaching a high level of social and personal skills, the development of strong active language competence in English and another foreign language are essential parts of the program.

This enables students to take advantage of opportunities during their semester breaks to acquire professional experience as well as to work in professionally relevant jobs in tourism and leisure. A semester generally consists of 14-week-courses and an examination period. The program starts in the winter semester.
