Supporting language learning and cultural exchange through an exciting new partnership
Swiss Education Group schools' students and alumni now have access to EF’s outstanding language learning platform, training courses, and programs.
Education First is the world’s largest and most reputable international language education company. It has trained more than two million students in the last five years, at over 600 locations worldwide both face to face and online. By joining forces with EF and benefiting from their language expertise, our leading hospitality, business, and culinary schools can help our students acquire the language skills they need to fulfill their international career ambitions.
Languages are an important part of global hospitality careers.
Yong Shen, CEO of Swiss Education Group, commented that "Languages are an important part of global hospitality careers. We are very pleased to be able to leverage EF’s highly professional language offerings in support of the educational journey of our students and alumni."
Students will be able to continue improving their language skills throughout their studies and internships within one of the fifty EF language schools around the world or through EF’s online platforms. Future students will also be able to access EF’s courses in order to prepare for their arrival in Switzerland. Through this partnership, we are excited to organize joint events and be able to provide students with potential internship opportunities at one of EF’s international locations.
Together, we will open the doors for them to an international career.
"At EF, we transform dreams into international opportunities by combining language training with cultural exchange. We are honored to be working alongside SEG to support their future students from all around the world with our language-learning programs. Together, we will open the doors for them to an international career," said Iris Hormann, President of Language Abroad at EF Education First.
