EHL assist education institutions to achieve a high standard of academic quality assurance that is backed by EHL.

The EHL Certification Scheme is a quality assurance framework, addressing the needs of hospitality and tourism education institutions to continuously improve their educational offer and internal organization.

EHL CERTIFICATION SCHEME

• A Solid Business Model
  
  Much more than an academic accreditation, the EHL certification process addresses the institution as a whole to make the school successful and profitable. Our consultants offer guidance and support in areas such as financial planning, marketing positioning and operations efficiency.
• Three-Step Process
  
  The EHL certification process of partnership begins with a shared vision for the institution and passes by many steps of advisory presence and review, allowing the institution to pass through three levels of association and to achieve ever-higher levels of certification with EHL.
• Progressive Benefits
  
  As soon as a school enters the certification process, they begin to access a number of privileges that progress through the three stages of membership.
  
  Once an institution has achieved the status of a "Center of Excellence" it becomes like a branch of EHL with access to exclusive resources and an annual academic and business review.
